DESCRIPTION
Women all over the world raise families, often single-handely. They care for childern, the sick, the elderly and often adult, able-bodies men as well. In some countries they work more than fifteen/sixteen hours a day tilling the fields, fetching water, carrying firewood and cooking because their prime responsibility is that of "home makers". In East Africa the home is the responsibility for women, which does not simply refer to cleaning, cooking and childcare, but also to the production and preparation of all that goes into making their home.
