Gender, Literacy and Life Chances in Sub-Saharan Africa

Gender, Literacy and Life Chances in Sub-Saharan Africa

Taking as a starting point the taken-for-granted assumption that literacy affects women's lives in very important ways, the author provides much needed evidence from research in a rural community in Sub-Saharan Africa, that show the value of literacy in increasing the life chances of women. The book concludes with macro and micro level policy options that are necessary for critical (re)construction of women's lives in the region and elsewhere.
