Women hold up half the sky. This is an old Chinese saying. However, research shows that perhaps
women do more than their share of “holding up the sky". Fifty percent of the world's population are
women, but nearly two-thirds of all working hours are done by women. They do most of the domestic work

like cooking and washing clothes. Millions also work outside the home. Women hold forty percent of all
the world's jobs. For this work they earn only 40 to 60 percent as much as men, and of course they earn
nothing for their domestic work. In developing countries, where three-fourths of the world's population
lives, women produce more than half of the food In Africa, 80 percent of all agricultural work is done by
women. In parts of Africa, this is a typical day for a village woman. At 4.45 am, she gets up, washes, and
eats. It takes her half an hour to walk to the fields, and she works there until 3.00 pm. She collects firewood
until 4.00 pm then comes back home. She spends the next hour and a half preparing food to cook, then she
collects water for another hour. From 6.30 to 8.30 she cooks. After dinner, she spends an hour washing the
dishes. She then goes to bed at 9.30 pm.
