This title builds on the Empowerment Sourcebook (2002) by addressing the question of how to measure empowerment. It brings together perspectives from experts in the fields of economics, sociology, anthropology, psychology and political science. Case studies and reports on recent experience in measuring empowerment in different contexts are used to describe empowerment concepts and methods, as well as their practical application at four distinct levels of intervention: individual, gender and household, communities and local governance, and national.
