| description |
In Africa, women are subjected to
discriminatory practices that keep them in a vulnerable
situation. Their limited access to land, in a continent
where the majority of the population depends on agriculture,
reduces their access to credit and their capacity to
undertake sustainable economic activities to generate
income. They hold only 18 percent of agricultural lands and
are not better off in administrations. In Cote
d'Ivoire, the woman remains marginalized, with a status
that is increasingly weakened today by the socio-political
situation. Data from the National Statistics Institute
highlight their extreme poverty: 75 percent of rural women
are living below the poverty line. And they are often
deprived of basic social services. Some socio-cultural
factors perpetuate traditions that are harmful to girls and
women. This report is the culmination of the process
initiated by the World Bank as part of the establishment of
its program of strengthening the role of women in Ivorian
society. It reports summary proposals from the various
consultations held both nationally and regionally. Designed
in a participatory and decentralized approach, these
consultations have made it possible to gather factual and
contextual data on the four (04) themes selected for the
workshops, as well as proposals that, if translated into
actions, would help develop an action plan. This is, and it
must be stressed, a study that has the merit of giving the
floor directly to hundreds of Ivorian women from all
socio-professional categories to develop themselves a
roadmap based on their own daily experiences. |
