2. The Women
• For all my life, I have seen women in this
region take on a lot of responsibilities to raise
their families with very limited resources.
• They work in their family farm year in year
out, most of time with very little yield. They
spend the rest of the time working in the
farms of their neighbors in return for food, or
milk or money to pay for other consumable
goods and educate their children.
