Migration and gender dynamics of irrigation governance in Nepal
Author: Meinzen-Dick, Ruth Suseela
Publisher: Intl Food Policy Res Inst
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
Nepal has a long history of irrigation, including government and farmer-managed irrigation systems that are labor- and skill-intensive. Widespread male migration has important effects on Nepalese society. How institutions such as Water Users’ Associations (WUAs) respond and adapt, is therefore critical to the understanding of rural transformation and the likely impact on gender equality, food production, and rural livelihoods. This paper examines the effects of male migration on institutional change in WUAs, women’s roles, technological change, and outcomes affecting effectiveness of irrigation systems based on a mixed methods study, combining a phone survey of 336 WUA leaders from all provinces in Nepal with qualitative data from case studies in 10 irrigation systems. Results indicate WUAs have adapted rules to increase women’s participation and monetize the contributions for maintenance. Women exercise agency in whether and how to interact with WUAs. Mechanization has reduced the need for some male labor, though the ability to mechanize is limited by hilly terrain and small plot sizes. Overall, systems are adapting to male migration, with relatively low idling of land or labor shortages causing deterioration of the systems, though there are concerns with the high levels of women’s labor burdens.

Book Description
Sustainable Development Goal 6 (Goal 6) to ?ensure access to clean water and sanitation for all'requires explicit attention to social inclusion. Achieving universal access to safely managed water andsanitation will only be reached if the needs and rights of the most marginalised are prioritised. Inequality,discrimination and social exclusion occurs in all societies and is often experienced by women, culturalminorities, youth, people with disabilities, older people, transgender and intersex people, poorest of thepoor, people considered low-caste, and indigenous peoples. Social exclusion will only be overcome inglobal water and sanitation efforts if all actors at all levels explicitly address discrimination and inequalityand proactively facilitate participation which redresses underlying unequal power dynamics. This paperfocuses on gender transformation in water and sanitation, as one key aspect of social inclusion. Thispaper explores the critical connection between gender and water and sanitation and water governanceinstitutions and arrangements for the benefit of all people.
