people who can’t read and write are women. Being illiterate doesn’t mean they are not
intelligent. It does mean it is difficult for them to change their lives. They produce more than haft
of the food. In Africa eighty percent of all agricultural work is done by women. There are many
programs to help poor countries develop their agriculture. However, for years, these programs
provided money and training for men.
