The case studies provide an overview of gender issues in selected sectors, and gender design features and implementation arrangements that contributed to achieving gender-related targets in four ADB projects, with focus on mechanisms, processes and structures supported by project-specific gender action plans. Key achievements to date are documented and remaining challenges identified.
