1. Borsep's contribution to visibility of Women and Development.

This approach is based on the dependency theory.

•The WAD developed in the latter part of the 1970s as a result of its criticisms leveled against the WID approach

•The WID approach argued that women should be brought into the modernization process. The WAD perspective argued that it was precisely their link with modernization that had made them more poor.

•The WAD approach comes from the perspective that equality will be essential to improving women’s positions, but still frames change in terms of providing women access to the productive sector

2. Describe the emergence of the WID approach.

• WID stands for Women In Development. This approach is based on the liberal modernization theory. It involves restructuring development programs such as welfare, antipoverty, equity and empowerment. This approach was founded in the 1970's by a Washington-based network of female development professionals (Thinker, 1990:30).

3. Trace the WID approach through the first three world conferences.

• The first three international women's conference are from Mexico (1975), Nairobi (1980), Copenhagen (1985). The third women group pressured the emergence of the WID. The status of women from this approach on par with men was based on equality. This was emerged in 1975.

4, Elaborate the GAD approach.

• GAD stands for Gender and Development. This represents radical feminism and focuses on women's emancipation and uprooting of patriarchy. The GAD approach does not consider women as a uniform.
