Ghanaian Youths And Female Education

Although there has been much research done about girls and women in developing countries, there is still more research that needs to done to close the gap between men and women in developing nations. The rate of poverty keeps on increasing; the health of children in most of these the developing nations is still alarming.  There is a saying that goes “educate a man and you educate an individual, but you educate a woman and you educate a whole nation”.  Within the African culture, a woman’s responsibility is to be a care taker in the home and also to raise her children, but my questions is, can there be more expectation from these women in Africa than just reproducing.
