This is done to provide new knowledge for mainstreaming gender into rural development projects. The aim is to go beyond general gender assumptions and provide more detailed empirical knowledge on differentiated gender roles and the relative access of women and men to resources. The report will demonstrate that women and men in rural Bolivia have many different roles and opportunities, which are not equally distributed. The paper will also show that these roles are changing as a result of both general development trends and climate change. Further, evidence demonstrates that women and men experience vulnerability and adapt to climate change differently. As a result, rural development and adaptation strategies should integrate the relative capacities of women and men and respond to their particular needs. This will help avoid counterproductive out comes that widen gender gaps and allow for more sustainable, pro-poor rural development. This report will begin by introducing the methodology and case study regions. It will then examine in detail the specific roles of women and men in rural Bolivia. Next it will look at the gendered access to and control over resources and how gender roles, access and control are changing as a result of climate change. The report will finish with some general conclusions and specific recommendations for development practitioners in rural Bolivia.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABSENCE OF WOMENACCESS OF WOMENACCESS TO EXTERNAL RESOURCESACCESS TO FOODACCESS TO JOBSACCESS TO RESOURCESADULT POPULATIONADULT WOMENAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIONAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTSALLOCATION OF RESOURCESANIMAL HUSBANDRYBASIC NUTRITIONBIODIVERSITYBIRTH ORDERBOTH SEXESBREADWINNERCAPACITY BUILDINGCASH CROPSCHILD CARECHILD HEALTHCLIMATE CHANGECOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTCONTROL OVER RESOURCESCUSTOMCYCLE OF POVERTYDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPMENT PROJECTSDIETDISCRIMINATIONDRINKING WATERECONOMIC EMPOWERMENTECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIESECONOMIC STATUSECONOMICSECOSYSTEMELDERLYENVIRONMENTAL CHANGEEQUAL ACCESSEQUIPMENTETHNIC GROUPSEXISTING RESOURCESFAMILIESFAMILY HEALTHFAMILY INCOMEFAMILY MEMBERSFARMSFEEDFEMALEFEMALE HEADSFEMALE HEADS OF HOUSEHOLDSFEMININITYFEMINISMFOOD SECURITYGENDERGENDER ACTIONGENDER ANALYSISGENDER DIFFERENCESGENDER DIVISION OF LABORGENDER EQUALITYGENDER EQUITYGENDER GAPGENDER GAPSGENDER INEQUALITIESGENDER INEQUALITYGENDER ISSUESGENDER NEUTRALGENDER RELATIONSGENDER ROLESGENDER SPECIALISTGENDER STUDIESGENDER-NEUTRAL LAWSGOVERNMENT AGENCIESHEALTH CAREHEALTHY LIFEHOMEHOMESHOUSEHOLD INCOMEHOUSEHOLD LEVELHOUSEHOLD SURVEYSHOUSESHOUSINGHUMAN CAPACITYHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCESHUSBANDHUSBANDSILLNESSESIMMIGRANTSINCOMESINDIGENOUS GROUPSINDIGENOUS LANGUAGESINDIVIDUAL WOMENINFORMAL SECTORINSURANCEINVESTMENTS IN EDUCATIONLABOR MARKETLABOR MIGRANTSLABORERSLABOUR MARKETLEGAL STATUSLEVEL OF EDUCATIONLEVELS OF EDUCATIONLINKAGE BETWEEN GENDERLIVELIHOODSLIVESTOCKLOCAL COMMUNITYLOW-INCOME COUNTRIESMALE DOMINANCEMALE PARTICIPATIONMARITAL STATUSMASCULINITYMIGRANTMIGRANT GROUPSMIGRANT WOMANMIGRANT WOMENMIGRANTSMIGRATIONMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALSNATIONAL LEVELNATIONAL LEVELSNATURAL DISASTERSNATURAL ENVIRONMENTNATURAL RESOURCENATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENTNATURAL RESOURCESNGOSNUTRITIONOLDER WOMENPARTICIPATION OF WOMENPHYSICAL WORKPOLICY DIALOGUEPOLICY FORMULATIONPRACTITIONERSPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY SCHOOLPRODUCTIVITYPROGRESSRAINFORESTRESOURCE ALLOCATIONRESPONSIBILITY OF WOMENRISK OF ILLNESSROLE OF WOMENRURAL AREASRURAL COMMUNITIESRURAL DEVELOPMENTRURAL GIRLSRURAL POPULATIONRURAL SOCIOLOGYRURAL WOMENSEA LEVELSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY SCHOOLSSINGLE MOTHERSSINGLE WOMENSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL DIMENSIONSOCIAL GROUPSOCIAL NORMSSUBSISTENCE AGRICULTURESUBSISTENCE FARMINGSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTTECHNICAL EDUCATIONTECHNICAL TRAININGTRADITIONAL GENDER ROLESTRADITIONAL PRACTICETRANSPORTATIONUNDPUNEQUAL POWERUNEQUAL POWER RELATIONSUNIVERSITIESUNIVERSITY EDUCATIONVULNERABILITYWAGE GAPWATER COLLECTIONWATER MANAGEMENTWATER SUPPLIESWDRWIDOWWIDOWSWILLWIVESWOMANWOMEN HEADS OF HOUSEHOLDSWOMEN LEADERSWOMEN WITH CHILDRENWOMEN'S ISSUESWORK BURDENSWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONYOUNG MENYOUNG WOMENWorking PaperWorld Bank10.1596/27161
