#4 Notes from the Field: Gender Study in Kingantoko and Surrounding Area
Charlotte Ndona and the Susila Dharma DR Congo team studied the forces that shape the lives of women in seven villages in the Democratic Republic of Congo. These included the constraints put on them by a lack of education, early and frequent pregnancy and the long distance each one has to walk to to carry water, food and firewood back to their families every day. They studied the social pressures on, the cultural economic situation and legal status of, and the choices available to these women.

People are unemployed or underpaid, if they are paid at all; and they need to be very entrepreneurial to survive."
