1996, Urban Research in Developing Countries Volume 4: Thematic Issues
It is the purpose of this chapter to advance the discourse between gender analysis and transport, specifically within the urban development context, with a view to promoting an understanding of the strategic role of transport, access and mobility in addressing strategic human (including gendered) development issues. The objective is to explore the use of practical frameworks and tools that can be used by transport and urban analysts in starting to examine the gender aspects of their work. The gender analysis framework explored here is based on Caroline Moser’s well-known work in the gender and development field, but is extended for application specifically in the transport field. The framework’s application is illustrated briefly with examples from recent research undertaken by the authors in South Africa. The chapter first provides a brief overview of previous work on gender, transport, and development, in order to place the present discussion in a larger context. Then the proposed...

Gender Responsive Budgeting for Indian Cities: The Case of Bhopal and Pune2019 •
Women contribute significantly to the prosperity of cities through their paid and unpaid labour. However, limited or lack of access to essential infrastructure services such as water and sanitation, restricted mobility, tenure security and so on increase their burden of unpaid care work, thereby aggravating gender-based disadvantage and resulting in 'time poverty', which is largely overlooked by policy-makers. This article assesses whether metropolitan cities of India, Bhopal and Pune have integrated a gendered perspective in their development using the gender responsive budgeting (GRB) tool from the expenditure side. Using Maxine Molyneux's conceptualization of 'strategic gender needs' and 'practical gender needs', the article develops gender-sensitive indicators to assess progress on four categories of urban infrastructure: water supply, sanitation, housing and public transport. It then uses the benefit incidence analysis (BIA) of public expenditure tool to arrive at expenditure benefits reaching women in both cities. This article is as much a methodological contribution as budget analysis.
This paper is an exploration in applying methodology of Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB) to the urban sector at the city level. It is as much a methodological paper as it is application of gender lens to the urban development processes. The study, borrowing from available methods, has developed a methodology suitable for the analysis of the urban sector finances in India from the gender lens. The analytical framework for assessing the relevance of public expenditures from gender lens is that of Maxine Molyneaux’s ‘Practical and Strategic Gender Needs’. Four sub-sectors within the city, water, sanitation, housing and public transportation, have been assessed through parameters and indicators in each of the sector. Benefit incidence analysis approach has been undertaken to measure the indicators followed by the apportioning of actual expenditures in each of the sub-sector between men and women in the two case study cities of Bhopal and Pune.

In recent years a convergence of more socially progressive transport policy, and an intentional focus on the gender aspects of development, has lead to an increasing awareness of the ways in which transport systems and interventions fail to adequately address the needs of ...
