Policy mapping: women's economic empowerment in Ethiopia

Abstract

This scoping paper highlights policies, plans, and initiatives related to women’s economic empowerment in Ethiopia. It identifies entry points where further research may strengthen policies, and stakeholders who may champion some of the work going forward. The authors, who have expert knowledge of the policy landscape, conducted a rapid assessment through a systematic review of literature.

This is one of the five country-based scoping papers commissioned by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) to inform the foundations of the Growth and Economic Opportunities for Women (GrOW) East Africa Initiative.
