Angelika Arutyunova

Development, 2012, vol. 55, issue 3, 305-310

Abstract: Women's rights activists and advocates are not the only ones talking about the importance of inclusion of women and girls in the development processes. From the World Bank to corporations, investing in women and girls trend has picked up over the past years. At the same time, AWID's Where is the Money for Women's Rights? 2011 survey results demonstrate very little benefit for women's organizations coming from corporations. Angelika Arutyunova argues that inclusion of women's organizations in finding solutions for women's and girls problems is essential and not only as beneficiaries but as agents of change.
