Description

Four co-operatives in the Philippines overcome opposition from co-op leaders and staff to enable women members to realize their potentials, and to address gender issues within their organizations. Translating their awareness into action, they prove that pursuing the gender agenda brings benefits to both the women and the co-ops through increased membership, deposits, savings, loans and income.
