Publisher's Synopsis
Seeds 2 also includes a study that documents UNICEF's efforts to institute child-care programs in Ecuador, Ethiopia, and Nepal with an emphasis on health and education. Case studies from India, Mozambique, and Zambia describe women joining together to use the land more beneficially for people and ecology and, in the process, to learn new skills in organizing, literacy, and accounting. In the United States, Women Venture provides the means and support for women to start their own businesses as a route out of welfare and poverty.
Seeds 2 puts into global perspective both problems and successes of projects that promote women's economic self-sufficiency and political participation.
