Wood Energy, Women and Health: A Sub-Regional Training Course

RWEDP Report No.46, 2000

Table of Contents

In this training course on Wood Energy, Women and Health, the health aspects of wood energy were addressed in the wider context of gender-related development concepts and problems. This report gives an account of this course and includes materials that deepen our understanding of the issues, background information, case studies and recommendations that may serve as a reference for others.

The course, for participants from RWEDP member-countries in Southeast Asia, was part of RWEDP's programme on gender aspects of wood energy development. This programme started in 1995 with a policy workshop on Gender and Wood Energy in Chiangmai, and a training course on Women in Wood Energy Development in Bangkok.
