dc.description.abstractIn contemporary development policy and planning social capital is seen as important as economic capital for the advancement of the deprived populations, especially poor women as it is identified as a resource that is available to anyone. However, social capital is not a unitary concept and can manifest itself in diverse qualities and forms.

Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected; quantitative data were obtained through a sample survey of 534 female heads of households and qualitative data were gathered through in-depth interviewsen_US
