Gender and state bias in Jamaican housing programs.

Klak, Thomas H.

Gender and state bias in Jamaican housing programs. - 1992

Examines women's access to Jamaica's National Housing Trust (NHT) created to finance housing for those most in need. Notes that although NHT favours those women who are able to access the system, NHT's rules of inclusion reflect societal prejudices against women. The overall effect is that most women are excluded.
