Abstract

The paper will consider the reconstruction process in Nicaragua post hurricane Mitch. First, the success of civil society co-ordinations at promoting common people-centred agendas will be highlighted and contrasted with the difficulties they have faced in becoming gender inclusive spaces. Second, the extent to which the official rhetoric they helped to promote has been translated into reality is examined, suggesting that on the ground projects remain at best 'women-centred'.
