Although several decades of feminist social action have made significant progress to the social, economic and political condition of many women, change has been uneven and there remain considerable advancements to be made globally. This valuable third edition updates some of the perennial issues that women face for today and looks at new arenas of difficulty, including digital exclusion, sustainable community development and environmental justice.
“Women and Community Action has been an essential resource, bringing feminist understandings to community development studies. This updated edition brings new insights, a very welcome addition to the field.” Marjorie Mayo, Emeritus Professor of Community Development at Goldsmiths, University of London
"This revised third edition contributes a vital and thought-provoking analysis of women’s changing position in the world and, in particular, the critical role of women in changing community contexts." Mae Shaw, University of Edinburgh
“This new volume of Women and Community Action is especially valuable in a fast-changing global and national landscape. It is a must-read for social work, community education and community work scholars, activists and practitioners.” Fin Cullen, St. Mary’s University
