Agriculture and Gender Justice in Nigeria: A study of Ogun Waterside.
The frontiers and implications of the biological difference between men and women have been subjects of continuous studies. But the social and economic impact of the diverse roles society assigns to men and women had remained a subject of speculation till more recently. There had been the tendency to assume that policies, programmes and projects based on economic growth variables will benefit men and women equally. On the contrary, many countries have witnessed the failure of development paradigms lacking in gender considerations. The failure manifests in various ways of which the perpetuation of female poverty is strong evidence.

BETWEEN DUTY AND SENTIMENTS
Domestic violence is a critical social problem that has assumed an alarming dimension in Nigeria. One reason identified for the persistence of domestic violence is the mismanagement of the problem by law enforcement agencies. In recognition of the growing nature of these types of violations in Nigeria and the growing demand it places on the Police Force, GADA in collaboration with Friedrich Ebert Foundation organised a three-day national workshop on Domestic violence for Police Instructors, media practitioners and civil society, which eventually culminated into this publication. |

It also gave a full report of workshops that brought together Civil Society Organisations, Media Practitioners and other stakeholders to look at Gender and International Trade. |

WE THE PEOPLE and the LOCAL GOVERNMENT SYSTEM’
Constitutional debates in Nigeria appear to be the business of a few. Many others do not see or understand that the constitution makes far-reaching recommendations that affect their day-to-day existence. This handbook is an attempt to capture in very basic sense the provisions of the constitution as they relate to local governments. It is also hoped that simplification of the issue will get many more people interested in this all-important document as a means of promoting and supporting constitutional democracy. It also looks at other provisions in the 1999 constitution relating to local governments to the role of both the officials operating the system and the people on which their operation has significant impact. |
