Adult Education & Livelihood Women as Agents of Change
(0000) Pant, Mandakini
Out of an estimated 1.2 billion poor people in the world, over two-thirds are women. They face abject poverty in want of adequate food, clean water, sanitation, and health care. They often lack access to the critical resources of credit, land and inheritance. They are denied opportunities, choices; access to information, education, and skills. Without any sense of power whatsoever, their participation in decision-making is minimal, both at home and in the community.
