Abstract | This issue contains four case studies of environmental action involving women in Brazil, Bangladesh, Burkina Faso and Tahiti. The studies were commissioned by the United Nations International Research and Training Institute for the Advancement of Women (INSTRAW). The cases highlight the exclusion of women in political and bureacratic decisions affecting the environment and the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in the environmental movement. Also included are descriptions of five women and environment networks, and a list of relevant books and audiovisuals. |
