Overview

WGGP promotes the study of human development in international settings. Because such development has gender, cultural, economic, legal, moral, political, social, and technological dimensions, we emphasize scholarly activities that advance our understanding of how resource  inequalities and gender equity affect individual and community capabilities. Through a multi-disciplinary approach, we address and critically evaluate human development issues by conducting research, impacting policy and decision making as well as practice, educating future academic and policy leaders, engaging academic, policy, government, and non-governmental, and community leaders, and highlighting the centrality of gender in human development.
