Women do more unpaid work

secure positions. Because of
this the economy staggers.
Women produce between 60-
80 of crops in developing
countries, yet they only own

In 25 countries in sub-
Saharan Africa revealed that
71 per cent of the water
collectors in the region are

Greater equality in
education is needed to

barriers in society.
Education, especially that

Uneducated women tend
to have more children,
thus rapidly increasing the
human population. 10
