Tools: Resources and Benefits Profile
Men and women do not have the same access or control over productive resources or benefits accruing from them. This gender-based inequality can have implications for the design and implementation of development interventions. In doing gender analysis, planners therrefore need to obtain information about the gender-based patterns of access to and control over resources and benefits in the given community. The resources and benefits profile is a tool to help identify these gender-based patterns.
