Changing gender roles in irrigation management: Sadguru's lift irrigation co-operatives 1999 p.3596-3606 18 Dec Based on fieldwork around three lift-irrigation schemes in Sadguru's project area and their parallel institutional management structure, the lift-irrigation co-operative, this paper examines the role of women on the executive committees of the co-operatives. It tries to assess the extent to which Sadguru's efforts in policy advocacy (enabling women's representation on executive committees) and gender sensitisation (training on gender relations in development for all staff and community workers) have enhanced women's participation in decision-making on the management of community irrigation systems. In addition, the paper examines how agrarian transformation has changed, albeit in limited ways, gender roles and responsibilities in a tribal society, namely, the bhils of Panchmahals district, Gujarat. - Reproduced Irrigation Economic and Political Weekly 43509 43509 43509 0 0 0 0 IIPA IIPA 2018-07-19 Volume no: 34, Issue no: 51 AR43905 2018-07-19 2018-07-19 AR
