abstract: 'Women''s involvement in decision-making in domestic energy remains an
under-researched area, especially in the urban context. This research
adopts a gendered perspective in exploring slum rehabilitation housing
in India. Based on a household survey and a focus group discussion
(FGD), women''s household and working practices are explored in interview
narratives and systems analysis. The findings show that the relocation
to slum rehabilitation housing (SRH) has radically changed women''s
household routines (cooking, comfort, childrearing, working and
entertainment practices) and that women are more affected by the
relocation than men. Changed practices, poor design of SRH and lack of
outdoor space have radically increased electricity use and living costs
in all the surveyed households. The economic pressure forces women into
lowly paid jobs or informal economy, creating a vicious circle where
women''s time poverty further reduces their social capital and
opportunities for self-development in terms of education or formal
employment. A comparison of SRH typologies shows that building design
has great influence both on gendered use of space and electricity use,
advocating a courtyard typology. Further, interviews with policy-makers
reveal a dis-juncture between the occupant realities and the policy
objectives. The paper argues that gender equality can and should be
influenced through energy and housing policies and offers a conceptual
framework for inclusive SRH to address this dis-juncture.'
