The paper also highlights a fundamental element of BRAC’s vision and pedagogical approach – enabling the powerless, especi…

Men's violence against women in rural Bangladesh
Using data from a recent ethnographic study in rural Bangladesh to explore relationships between men's violence against women in the home, women's economic and social dependence on men, and microcredit programmes, this paper suggests that microcredit programmes have a varied effect on men's violence against women. They can reduce women's vulnerability to men's violence by strengthening their economic roles and making their lives more public. When…

It traces women's experiences and perceptions of family planning in the context offertility transition, and examines some of the effects of…
Family Planning Outreach and Credit Programs in Rural Bangladesh
Results of this recent study in rural Bangladesh suggest that programs that draw women out of their homes and reduce their dependence on men are contributing to greater use of contraception. One such program, Grameen Bank, now has female members in nearly half of all Bangladesh villages. Participation in the program was found to be associated with high levels of contraceptive use even among women who have not been exposed to family planning outre…
Credit Programs, Women's Empowerment, and Contraceptive use in Rural Bangladesh

The effects on contraceptive use of women's participation in rural credit programs and on their status or level of empowerment were examined. A woman's level of empowerment is defined here as a function of her relative physical mobility, economic security, ability to make various purchases on her own, freedom from domination and violence wi…
