World Employment Programme Background papers for training in population, human resources and development planning. Paper No. 6. The main objective of the Programme is to help Member States incorporate demographic elements into employment-related policies and, more broadly, to facilitate the integration of population and human resources development issues into national development planning. The present paper addresses the issues of assessing women's contribution to economic development.

This volume assembles the major papers discussed at an international workshop on poverty monitoring to evaluate poverty indicators and poverty monitoring systems. It aims to focus more attention on poverty issues and improve policies for alleviating poverty.
