The Role of the Woman in the Fight against Poverty



English Translation by community member Emma520.



As we all know, the woman has big responsibilities around housework, she has the capacity to do a few things that can help in times of urgent need and confront the face of poverty.



In rural towns, women work in the field and do some small business, these activities cover half of the home’s needs, but could cover it all for another. Because of the field work, they are able to feed their children and pay their school fees.



In urban areas, where there is already equality between man and woman on the social plain, educated women too work in different groups and companies, just to have the means to support their family. Other women also work in business. Everything women do is for the aim to support the needs of the household and fight against poverty.
