| Abstract | This document summarizes discussions at an invitational workshop on women in Nigeria. The discussion centered on overcoming sex bias and discrimination in all areas of life so that women could contribute to the national development effort. The following broad topics were discussed: (1) cultural attitudes that discourage the education of women; (2) women's health problems, including prenatal care and birth control; (3) traditional attitudes that discriminate against women, including female circumcision, male child preference, and child marriages; (4) the unrecognized contributions of women to the economy through domestic and agricultural work and the need for increased political involvement; (5) the role of women as monitors of environmental quality; and (6) the role of women in developing peaceful solutions to conflict on the interpersonal, familial, interethnic, and national levels. A list of participants, the text of the two introductory addresses, and a description of the Africa Leadership Forum are appended. (FMW) |
