'gender'는 사회적 의미의 성(性)이고 'sex'는 생물학적인 성(性)을 의미한다. 'gender'는 남녀 차별적인 'sex'보다 대등한 남녀간의 관계를 내포하며, 평등에 있어서도 모든 사회적인 동등함을 실현시켜야 한다는 뜻이 함축되어 있기 때문이다. 점점 더 많은 수의 여성이 과거의 남성 직업으로 진출해왔고, 직업 구조 자체가 바뀌어 가는 과정에서 여성의 일과 남성의 일의 구체적 목록은 변해 왔지만, 여전히 여성주의적 디자인 접근은 피상적인 답보상태에 머무르고 있고 수많은 가전제품의 도입과 개선이 이루어졌음에도 여성의 가사노동 부담은 상대적으로 개선된 점이 없다. 이미 과거의 남성들이 해왔던 일들은 대부분 기계화가 되었다. 현대적 가정기술은 여성이 가사노동의 조력자나 위임자 없이도 가정의 안락한 생활을 유지하는 것을 가능케 함으로써 여성의 사회활동에 기폭제가 된 것만은 틀림없다. 이에 따라 시대 변화 속에서 젠더 디자인의 개념 수립과 이에 따른 전략적 접근이 필요하다. 앞으로 우리의 삶과 상관되는 여성의 주체적 선택이 주어질 수 있는 디자인으로 바뀌기를 바라면서, 사회 속에서 여성의 노동과 그에 따른 가사활동의 문제를 제기하여 남성적 사고가 아닌 여성의 입장에서 디자인을 살펴보고자 했다.

This research is based on the survey of welfare beneficiaries, aiming to set up the gender-equal welfare policies. Through the survey, this research examines status of women in the family and society and also examines, the degree of perception of women's welfare policies, needs, and satisfaction. According to the survey results, the current welfare policies that are limited to needy women should expand its range, enforcing the infra structure. That employment policy for women turned out to be very important in welfare policies. Demand for more enlarged welfare policies is quite high, especially in housing, employment and elderly care. On the contrary, the degree of satisfaction degree appears quite low because of unrealistic welfare program and benefits. In order to improve the welfare policies, more active and realistic employment policies should be emphasized with the proper support for family life. To raise the status of women, proper policies for women's economic independence should be set up. In addition, consciousness of gender equality should be encouraged in the whole society. Also, women's participation in politics and decision-making process is necessary.

This paper examines the impact of gender on access to debt finance among Vietnamese enterprises. The paper investigates data and variables retrieved from the World Bank Enterprise Survey dataset using five Probit models. The regression results suggest that there exist more unfavourable debt financing conditions for women-led firms (WLF), measured as a lower probability of having loan applications fully approved. Firm's age, working sector, and perception of access to finance as a difficulty are found to have explanatory power on the discrimination. More importantly, the perception of debt finance as a difficulty or firms' level of confidence significantly explains the variance of the dependent variable of probability of loan approval, or gender effect would be more pronounced if the firm already has a low level of confidence. The paper also contributes in testing for the gender effect on Vietnamese enterprises from different sectors and scale, unlike other prior research papers focusing on specific sectors and/or small and medium enterprises only. The findings are highly useful for Vietnamese credit institutions to set out a specific business policy to attract more WLFs and help promoting gender equality in the working environment, especially in debt financing, which is often neglected in existing regulation and policy frameworks.
