The development field needs to be more serious about gender inequities and women's empowerment. By ignoring gender inequities, many development projects fail to achieve their objective. And when development organizations do not focus on women's empowerment, they neglect the fact that empowered women have the potential to transform their societies. I also review the Gates Foundation's record on gender and propose some approaches to improve it.
发展领域需要更加重视性别不平等和妇女赋权问题。许多发展项目因忽视性别不平等而未能实现其目标。而当发展组织不关注妇女赋权时，他们忽视了一个事实，即赋权妇女有可能改变她们的社会。我还回顾了盖茨基金会在性别问题上的记录，并提出了一些改进方法。
