Book Description
OBJECTIVES: Evaluation of project promoting the use of appropriate technology by rural women in selected activities, and strengthening technological capabilities of the National Council on Women and Development in Ghana. This involved the local manufacture of selected tools and equipment, and the dissemination of information on improved technologies. FINDINGS: Project objectives achieved inspite of the women's lack of access to credit facilities and supplies of raw materials, which proved a major constraint to production. The project could be effectively replicated in other countries with import restrictions provided there is a sufficient number of workshops to manufacture equipment and adequate raw materials supplies. LESSONS LEARNED: Before adopting a technology and ordering the necessary equipment, contact should be made with potential users and a feasibility study undertaken. Consultation with women's groups and mutual agreement to assistance should precede project activities. Dissemination of technology to new areas should only be made after women's groups have been trained and are ready to receive the technology. In future, priority should be given to identifying sources for the supply of raw materials and increasing access to credit facilities.
