Summary
Chapter 8 concludes the book by reconnecting my stories and observations from Nampula with larger theoretical debates about gender, water, and development. I group my contributions into three areas: development evaluation, development theory, and gender and development. My conclusions acknowledge the remaining big questions in these fields and provide some practical recommendations for pursuing an alternative development model.
