The transport sector provides an example of a nontraditional channel to promote social, economic, and gender equity. This case study provides practitioners with effective analytical tools and methods that were used in the design of ADB's Timor-Leste Road Sector Improvement Project to specifically benefit traditionally excluded and disadvantaged groups, such as women and the poor. As ADB's first attempt to mainstream social and gender concerns in infrastructure-related projects in Timor-Leste, the success of the initial design phase of this project provides valuable lessons for other road and transport projects in Asia and the Pacific. |
