In January 2000 UNRISD initiated a research project, Gender Justice, Development and Rights to examine the ways in which liberal rights and ideas of democracy and justice have been absorbed into the agendas of women's movements and states in different regions. Twelve theoretical and empirical studies were carried out under the project. They look at three discrete but interrelated aspects of liberal rights agendas. (I) social sector restructuring and social rights in the era of nealiberal economic policy making;(ii) democratization and the politics of gender; and (iii) universalism and multiculturalism in practice.
