| Sumari: | This paper explores the changes in the involvement of women in income generating
activities with their participation in BRAC programmes over time. It is based on a timeseries
data collected from the same households with three years of interval. Participation in
BRAC progranunes created an opportunity for women to he involved in cash earning
although it did not increase with length of membership. Women's involvement in cash
earning was more common in female headed and low income households. Intensity,
inputs, time spent, size and market facilities regulated the income from IGA as wen. With
improvement in the economic condition of member households the involvement in income
generating activities has been decreased. Mainly women who were involved in selfemployed
activities continued their work.
