Mountain Research and Development issue online25.09.2014A decade after the last issue of Mountain Research and Development dedicated to women in mountains, the current issue (Volume 34, Issue 3) on Gender and Sustainable Development in Mountains, provides evidence of the progress made in gender research on sustainable development in mountains. At the same time, it offers important insight into what still needs to be done. MountainDevelopment articles analyse the impacts of development efforts in mountain regions of Nepal, India and Ecuador, and show that interventions often inadvertently benefit men more than women. MountainResearch articles explore the different ways in which women and men in India, Pakistan, Tajikistan and Austria negotiate change, development interventions and migration, and how this influences their daily lives in terms of their relations, power struggles, and access to resources.
