This Bulletin considers problems in institutionalising gender-sensitive development policy by exploring new gendered perspectives on the structure and functioning of development organisations, as well as strategies to improve their accountability to women. The institutional context for these questions is the developing state and its bureaucracies, and NGOs. The role of women's political mobilisation in improving the accountability of public institutions to women, and the relationship between development institutions and their female constituencies is also explored.

This Bulletin moves beyond to emphasize the application of gender analysis to environmental relations: seeing women as differentiated and in relation to men; and paying attention to the links between gender relations with environmental activities, responsibilities and rights.
