Women in Botswana

Life in Botswana is very extreme for male and female because of the high aids infection rate in the southern part of Africa where Botswana is located. The median age for the women there is about 20 years of age. Out of the 1,ooo infants that are females, 52 of them die. On a daily basis, the women there are beaten then raped by their male partners. Women of Botswana have no rights and the preganat women have HIV.
Women of Botswana professionals are paid just as well as them men there.

The women that live in botswana practically walk everywhere they go. The living conditions there are harsh to them. Most of their time is taking up because they are looking for food fo thier families. Most of the women try and attend organization groups like chruch mettings to disscus thier problems.

About 50 percent of the women are the total population but does not contribute to the workforce. Women however are a major concen in the labour market however. Women have the least oppurtunities in professions. Some professions you can mainly find them doing is teaching, then working for the government is the next and finally a service sector would be the last common job for the women their.
