Development of Women at Da-ra-ang
As in many cultures, the relegation of gender roles in hilltribe society can limit the participation of women in certain capacities, such as in direct forms of community leadership. UHDP is partnering with upland communities to broaden gender understanding and to strengthen the participation of women in all levels of society.
