| The book takes an in-depth look at the experience of seven Novib partner organisations in the Middle East and South Asia (GRAM Abhudhyaya Mandali and Gorakhpur Environmental Action Group (GEAG), India; Prodipan, Bangladesh; The Foundation for Participatory Action and Learning Methodologies (PALM), Sri Lanka; Palestinian Agricultural Relief Committees (PARC), Palestinian Territories; Sarhad Rural Support Programme (SRSP), Pakistan; and Coordination of Humanitarian Assistance (CHA), Afghanistan) who undertook the challenge of the Gender Focus Programme. It recounts their analysis of their organisations, and the routes they chose to follow. The book presents field experiences of managing the politically sensitive agenda of promoting gender equality in NGOs, and negotiating the contradictions between using Organisational Development tools and promoting gender equality. "Politics of the Possible" shows how organisational change for gender equality is an integral part of gender mainstreaming processes. As a decade of evidence suggests, gender mainstreaming is vulnerable to becoming technocratic and ineffective. These seven organisations, unable to separate entirely the internal change process from their external work as NGOs, experienced a spillover of gender justice concerns into their work in the field, with a variety of programme results. | |
