dc.description.abstractInternationally, there is debate about whether decentralisation to local government helps to empower women by making government closer and more accessible to them, or whether it undermines rights won at the national level. In South Africa, integrated development plans (IDPs) are meant to give strategic direction both to the work of the municipality and to national and provincial governments. This monograph discusses the outcomes from a study in South Africa (2004-2006). The full report, “Women Decentralisation and Integrated Development Planning” is also available. The document provides background, findings from the study, results from municipalities and their implications, and some recommendations.en
