Policy is a powerful instrument for directing development. It is, therefore, a central tool for redressing centuries of gender imbalance, exacerbated by the rapid pace of recent decades of development. Strategic interventions of the right kind, and in the right place at the right time, are now seen by "Women in Development" experts as the most significant actions for long-term impact on gender biases caused through skewed policies and programmes of the past. Indeed as feminist strategists analyze the position of women, and note especially the worsening plight of rural women, they shun "women's projects" in favour of mainstreaming women into all development. Policy analysis thus requires gender analysis as an indispensable aid to the identification of all issues and all population groups to be addressed by policy.
