ABSTRACT
Feminist research on women, development, and the environment, grounded in differing theoretical and activist agendas, marks a critical moment in feminism. These analyses chart a rich and complex terrain that is increasingly being recognized as critical to theory and practice in the intersecting and cross-cutting disciplines of environmental studies, feminist studies, and development studies. In this chapter I interrogate this literature from the perspective of environmental impact assessment. I ask: What insights does it offer that will help inform a gender-sensitive EIA?
