International development work has both reinforced and challenged inequalities related to sexuality and gender. The concept of heteronormativity is a promising frame for understanding these dynamics. This article starts with a description of the history of the concept and an exploration of its possible applications. It goes on to consider heteronormativity in development work, in relation to three areas in which struggles based on sex and gender orders have been most visible: in household models and family forms; HIV/AIDS; and efforts to combat violence against women.Pourquoi le travail de développement est-il si hétérosexuel ? L'hétéronormativité dans l'industrie internationale du développement Le travail international de développement a à la fois renforcé et mis en cause les inégalités liées à la sexualité et au genre. Le concept d'hétéronormativité constitue un cadre prometteur pour comprendre cette dynamique. Cet article commence par une description de l'histoire du concept et une étude de ses applications possibles. Il traite ensuite de l'hétéronormativité dans le travail de développement, par rapport à trois domaines dans lesquels les luttes basées sur les ordres du sexe et du genre ont été les plus visibles: dans les modèles de ménages et les formes familiales; le VIH/le sida; et les efforts en vue de lutter contre la violence à l'encontre des femmes.Por que o trabalho de desenvolvimento é tão convencional? Heteronormatividade na indú stria de desenvolvimento internacional O trabalho de desenvolvimento internacional tem ao mesmo tempo reforçado e desafiado as desigualdades relativas à sexualidade e ao gênero. O conceito de heteronormatividade é uma estrutura promissora para se compreender essas dinâmicas. Este artigo inicia com uma descrição da história do conceito e uma exploração de suas possíveis aplicações. Em seguida ele avalia a heteronormatividade no trabalho de desenvolvimento em relação a três áreas nas quais as lutas baseadas nas áreas de sexo e gênero têm sido mais visíveis: em modelos familiares e formas de família; HIV/AIDS; e nas esforços para combater a violência contra as mulheres.¿Por qué el trabajo en desarrollo es tan cuadrado? Heteronormatividad en el ámbito del desarrollo internacional El trabajo en desarrollo internacional ha incrementado las inequidades relacionadas con la sexualidad y el género a la vez que las ha combatido. El concepto de heteronormatividad 18 puede ser útil como marco analítico para comprender esta dinámica. Este ensayo comienza describiendo la historia del concepto y analizando sus posibles aplicaciones. También analiza la heteronormatividad en el trabajo de desarrollo en las tres áreas donde las luchas basadas en el sexo y en las jerarquías de género son más visibles: los modelos de hogares y las normas familiares; VIH/SIDA; y las luchas contra la violencia hacia las mujeres.
Susie Jolly in conversation with three activists whose work relates to sexuality, Henry Armas (GRUPAL, The Working Group for Participation, Peru), Pinar Ilkkaracan (Women for Women's Human Rights, Turkey), Veronica Magar (CARE, Asia Region) explores the links between sexual rights and international development. The conversations are based on the discussion she facilitated at a panel on sexual rights and development, with the aim of exploring development – sexuality connections and the possibilities for more positive and empowering approaches to sexuality.
