thanks a lot dear sis for appreciating....

well i think, disagreeing to any research is not a crime...everyone has different ideas and notions about any domain...one can express his/her opinions freely...

u r right that the above research aims at the needs identified by women...actually this research was totally aimed at women issues ....
The notion of “strategic gender needs”, was first coined in 1985 by Maxine Molyneux, and it helped develop gender planning and policy development tools, such as the Moser Framework, which are currently being used by development institutions around the world.

Mosers concept was basically a plan for low income women in the Third world which was based on their interests... in other words,their prioritized concernerns...when identifying interests, it is useful to differntiate between "womens interest", "PGN interests", and "SGN interests" following the threefold conceptualization made by Maxine Molyneux...having identified the diffeent intersts of women, it is possible to translate them into planning needs....in other words the means by which their (womens) concerns may be satisfied...

SGN are often normally identified as "feminist" as it is the level of concioucness required to struggle affectively for them...

(research was conducted by a female so she has more emphasised on the womens need)

regards,
