Jeannette Gurung submitted this paper for the worshop Building Coalitions, Creating Change
An Agenda for Gender Transformative Research in Development, in Penang Malaysia on 3-5 October.
This paper is based on a case study of how organizational change occurs through the resistance and subjectivity of actors, within an international organization engaged in agriculture and natural resource management knowledge generation and sharing, where I was leading a gender mainstreaming program for five years. As such, it serves as evidence of the challenges to gender transformative approaches in one organization, viewed from the perspective of inside actors and points to ways to support such change processes.
