Abstract | The World Survey identifies a select range of issues that are fundamental to women’s lives and are strategic for achieving gender equality and sustainability. It analyses patterns of growth, employment generation and the role of public goods; food production, distribution and consumption; population dynamics and women’s bodily integrity; and water, sanitation and energy. The World Survey 2014 provides an in-depth analysis of sustainable development issues, the challenges and the solutions, through a gender lens.[authors abstract] |
