The paper examines the uneven progress
women have made in the Latin American and Caribbean region
in the last forty years. It examines issues such as health
care, education, work-life balance, and family planning. The
report states that while women in the region have made
spectacular progress in the areas of education and health
access, economic development amongst women has become flat
and there is a challenge for policy makers to increase
access to opportunities for women. This is especially
apparent in the wage gap between men and women found
throughout the region. |
