Sidestream or Mainstream? Making all water uses the business of women and men Francis, J. (2002)
The links between gender, poverty and water are
easiest to identify when we look at domestic water use
and sanitation practices. Gender is also a key variable
when we look at economic activities, at income
generation in general and farming in particular. Men
and women should be equally represented when
decisions are made that affect productive activities
they are engaged in to assure equal access and
control over water, land and markets. Poor men and
women are often the first to suffer when the aquatic
environment is degraded.
