| Abstract: |
The study assesses strategies of various developmental organizations in
Abbottabad to incorporate gender in Project management. This is census based
research because of various limitations attached with data collection, whole
population considered to reduce the chances of maximum error. Data analysis
performed by descriptive statistics, correlation and regression. The results
show that there are strategies at national level and various international
commitments as well. Moreover, a five year project also implemented
successfully by UNDP to spread the awareness of gender mainstreaming and to
make the organizations to adopt gender mainstreaming in their policies,
planning and managements. However, primary data analysis shows that employers
are aware of gender mainstreaming and have aptitude about gender
mainstreaming, but due to no implementation of designed national level
policies, both genders feel lot of problems regarding the fulfillment of their
duties. These problems create stress and frustration and deteriorate the
effectiveness of employers work that ultimately impact badly on overall
efficiency of organizations. |
