Abstract

In spite of the prevailing gender norms, which favour men, some legislation passed by the Nepali government acknowledges the role of Nepali women as irrigators.

This article explores how these policies have been implemented and suggests measures which can be taken to further bolster women’s participation in this sector. Water Nepal Vol.11(2) 2004 pp.45-61
