rban Poverty in Ethiopia: The Economic and Social Adaptations of Women
The Book
Considering the dearth of research in the area of urbanization and gender, and especially the gendered impact of poverty, this book looks at various issues:
- identification of problems and coping strategies of poor women.
- microfinance as one of the coping strategies of poor women.
- friendship in the context of urbanization and poverty.
- women's negotiation of protection and safety in an environment where HIV/AIDS is rampant.
