Women Role

For along time women were not involved in the development programes which were initiated in the community "women's position in society was different from that of men and needed a new and different strategy. Also it was unable  to spend enough time in the area of concentrated grassroots organisational work ,Since this was not consistent with the priorities of OXFAM'S work which were basically that of a funding organisation 
This strategy was evolved and attempted over three years in the following section 4 will attempt to analyse the basic assumption and resultant experiences.I would however like to make clear that this  rotation is from my own perspective and  was only one  of the many actors involved  many  of whom made for greater contribution to the whole process also although in the above  background  and describe the three levels of my roles they were actually a product of a continuity evolution and at no time were so clearlydefined
