dc.description.abstractThe paper provides an overview of two gender and development (GAD) workshops conducted at Yangon University of Economics (YUE) in terms of research capacity building. In Myanmar, gender inequality has not been historically recognized as an issue for development. Being under a military regime for decades (1962-2010) research is underdeveloped, with limited or no data/information available across sectors. Universities are not autonomous. The curriculum is controlled by the Ministry of Education, and difficult to change. The GAD course drew from the International Development Research Centre (IDRC)’s book “Theoretical Perspectives on Gender and Development,” and six academic papers for individual reviews and group exercises.en
