Welfare Approach Women in
Development
• Originated in 1950s as a
result of the first official
world-wide recognition of
women’s equality and
non-discrimination on the
basis of sex as established
by UDHR in 1948.
• Response to outcomes of
inequalities among the local
elites and the common
people.
• Originated in 1970s as a result of the
debate of the women’s role in economic
development.
• Emerged from a liberal feminist
framework and was particularly influential
in North America
• The WID approach focuses on the
integration of women into the
workforce and increase their level of
productivity in order to improve their
lives.
• Women’s significant productive
contribution was made visible, although
their reproductive role was downplayed.

Women and
Development
Gender and
Development
• Originated back in 1975 in
Mexico City which focuses on
the relation between patriarchy
and capitalism.
• Focuses on the relationship
between women and
development processes rather
than purely on strategies that
seek women’s integration in
development.
• Tends to group women together
without considering the impact
of class, race or ethnicity on
women’s status.
• In late 80’s there was a growing
need to understand the unequal
status and treatment of women
and men, and the failure of
development initiatives to advance
women’s status.
• GAD emerged from a frustration
with the lack of progress of WID
and WAD, in changing women’s
lives and in influencing the
broader development agenda. It
challenged the WID’s/WAD’s
focus on women in isolation and
seeing women’s real problem as
the imbalance of power between
women and men.
WID and WAD fell short
in improving unequal
relationships. A
significant number of
projects were
unsustainable as
development projects
failed to consider the
multiple roles carried
out by women, leading
to a development model
that in the end become
disadvantageous to the
women.
