The fact that most even<strong>in</strong>g schools did not function.<br />

Maltreatment <strong>of</strong> women and a lack <strong>of</strong> sensitivity to women’s issues.<br />

Our work was supported by the fact that the Shiksha Karmi Project itself<br />

was based on participation, loosen<strong>in</strong>g up <strong>of</strong> hierarchies and the development<br />

<strong>of</strong> gender sensitivity. It was greatly facilitated by the fact that it had<br />

the support <strong>of</strong> several high level civil servants <strong>in</strong> the Government <strong>of</strong> Rajasthan<br />

as well as the Government <strong>of</strong> India. Without that support there would have<br />

been no dialogue.<br />
