Abstract
This review seeks to highlight the important issues in UNIFEM's latest report Progress of the World's Women 2008/2009 Who answers to women? Gender and accountability. The report places a large part of responsibility for women's progress, and the lack thereof, on those who hold responsibility, the bearers of power.-
