Abstract

This paper examines that there is still room for support for women’s resource access, focusing on how the situation of intra-household and extra-household make an opportunity for women’s resource access in urban Bangladesh. Most discussions about women’s resource access mainly focused on the negotiation process and decision-making between couples. However, we cannot rule out about the possibility that women try to access resources through not only the negotiation and decision-making but another way. Thus, this study attempted to analyze the women’s resource access by using the conception of “Intra-Household Initiative Formation.” The result of the analysis, the opportunity of women’s resource access is made by these three dimensions. One is the negotiation; second is “women’s strategic behavior,” and the other is “concession of husband.” In addition to this, we could find the possibility that the mutual aid networks in urban slum affect women’s resource access. Therefore, we need to find the way not only to improve women’s negotiation power but to maintain and strengthen the mutual aid networks surrounding women.
