Description: " ... focuses primarily on local governmental budgets, with the first part of the book containing a thorough analysis of women in local government budgets as well as case studies of five municipalities -- Lusikisiki, Greater Middleburg, Port Elizabeth, greater Lebowakgomo and Cape Town. The authors consider expenditure from the point of view of gender-specific allocations, equal opportunity/affirmative action allocations and the impact of mainstream expenditure. In Part 2 ... up-to-date gender-disaggregated statistics on employment are also given. ... in Part 3, donor funding to the government is evaluated to see to what extent donors promote gender issues and support women-friendly projects and initiatives."--Cover, p.[4].
