Unpacking Development
Unpacking Development is the podcast for anyone navigating the international development industry and its jargon. Each week, we unpack the history, use, and meaning of a key concept in development. We talk to folks in the industry who help us interrogate our language, diving into the good, bad and ugly of terms like “beneficiary”, “the field”, and “gender mainstreaming”.

Episode 3
This week on Unpacking Development, we talk about “Gender Mainstreaming!” Tune in to listen to us and our guest Nani Zulminarni (Founder of PEKKA - Program for Women Headed Households in Indonesia and Ashoka SEA Regional Director). We explore questions like: Did COVID-19 hinder progress for women as much as we think - or did it just reveal that we weren’t as far along as we thought? How can the simple definition of a “household” actually hurt women’s equality? And finally, how what does transformative gender programming in development actually look like?
