  5. Approach • Impact evaluation based on three rounds of surveys- Baseline, FUS-I and FUS-II • FUS-I developed many parameters of impact evaluation independent of the BLS • FUS-I also used recall method to construct BL data in some of the impact areas • Cross section and panel survey methods used in FUS-I • All the FUS I sample HHs revisited in FUS II • Comparison of FUS-II with FUS-I made to assess the contribution of the programme

  6. Contd.. • Phase I and II mandals considered for the impact assessment • Programme became universal, Program and Control samples strictly not comparable • Followed participants and non-participants of the programme • Used different methods in the Mid-term Appraisal to assess the contribution

  7. Contd.. • A 3 stage random sampling design • Srikakulam, Anantapur and Adilabad districts • 33 Program Mandals and 12 Control Mandals • 204 Program Villages and 60 Control Villages • Covered 2640 households, 1590 SHGs, 264 VOs and 48 MSs and 3 ZSs • Attrition rate 6%

  8. Impact areas • Women empowerment • Access to credit • Assets and livelihoods • Household well-being • Vulnerability and food security

  40. Household level StatusWomen Empowerment

  41. Introduction • Social empowerment should precede economic empowerment to handle poverty • Social and economic empowerment should ultimately result in reconfiguration of relations in both household and community • Women’s empowerment is measured in terms of their bargaining power

  42. Participation in Household Decision Making • Collective decisions has gone up significantly • Improvement in women’s access to financial resources, transformed men to share space in decision-making of savings and credit

  43. Contd… • Involvement of men in the preparation of micro- credit plan might have expanded the collective space • Collective spaces of decision-making proliferated into domains of economic and non-economic issues - Birth control - Decisions on food

  44. Contd.. • Men take care of children and cook food when women are busy • Stereotypes of gender division of labour seems to disappear slowly

  45. Autonomy of Women • Proportion of women obtaining permission to go for work increased significantly between MTA and now • Women share their info on all movements with their men • Contrary to situation in MTA

  46. Contd.. Why this u-turn behavior?

  47. Contd.. • Men realized that they got every benefit from the groups • No point of women investing time and money without flow of benefits from groups.

  48. Contd… • Increased use of coercive controls to negotiate with women - no positive improvements in attitudes of men in sharing spaces with women • Women afraid to disagree with their men and domestic violence increased • More time to bring attitudinal changes in men • Need for sensitizing men

  49. Impact of Empowerment(Livelihoods,Budget Allocations) • Share of budget allocated for clothing for women, fuel, lighting increased - indicates decline of drudgery of women • Budget share of food increased having favourable impact on women. • Gender sensitivities crept into budget allocations

  50. Contd… • Time women spend on family chores increased • May be women are spending quality time with their children, in contrast to the situation in MTA
