Can Dairy Value Chain Projects Change Gender Norms in Rural Bangladesh? Impacts on Assets, Gender Norms, and Time Use
This study analyses CARE Bangladesh's Strengthening the Dairy Value Chain Project (SDVCP) which aims to improve the dairy-related incomes of 35,000 households in northwest Bangladesh. It reviews whether the SDVCP increases asset ownership; whether it changed gender norms regarding ownership and control of those assets; and what the trade-offs and time costs involved in participation in this value chain project were.
