Post -school training significantly improves the employment probabilities but not the wages for urban salaried and self -employed women in Peru, possibly because they train for low -paying jobs. Because their chances of receiving job training are largely determined by educational attainment, women with limited schooling also face training opportunities.

This paper is addressed to a broad audience of development professionals who are interested in both the substance of decentralisation issues and their impact on economic development. The paper summarises experience with alternative decentralisation arrangements and suggests a new analytical framework for assessing the impact of such arrangements on the performance of economic development programmes and projects. Consideration of alternative forms of decentralisation reveals the need to clarify and establish priorities among economic and political objectives. The potential for conflict among multiple objectives and the need to assess decentralisation policies in terms of acceptable trade-offs among those objectives summarises the importance of this paper.
