"There is little denying the fact that investing in human capital is one of the most effective means of reducing poverty and encouraging sustainable development. Yet, women in developing countries usually receive less education than men. More so, women in general enjoy far less employment opportunities than men the world over. Any claims and efforts then, to remove poverty, can show results only if they address the issue of gender inequality" (www.yesweb.org/summit/sessions/op.inequality.doc)
- Is there really a relationship between gender inequality and poverty?
- Can equality among genders truely address the issues of society?
Well we know that from in years before in a family the sole source of income was the male(father), therefore the male was the one who normally go and get the job to support his family. He was the one from he was little was taught to get an education and the girls would learn to take care of the house.
ReplyDeletewell in the Caribbean it is well known that the male perspective is more dominant than the female's so therefore the males have more opportunities.
ReplyDeleteIn the past,it was the man who was the sole provider and the one who went out to work while the woman would stay home and take care of the children.This to show that man has more opportunities than females.
