The level of poverty, social and economic disruption of post conflict environment affects men and women in different ways. There a larger proportion of women headed households because men are active combatants in the war and therefore women take larger roles in bringing up the families. Substantial resources must be invested on women . Although women are more vulnerable to the effects of conflict, their activities are aimed at improvements of the well being of their families. Its often not a wrong choice to make women an entry point of rural development.
