Africa's Women # 2019

Mao once said, "Women carry half the sky." "In Africa," the ex-correspondent of “die Zeit”, Bartholomew Grill, added, "they carry at least the three quarters". African women manage almost half of the small and medium enterprises in Africa. They produce 80 percent of the grown food and they do not wage wars.

In this series the book author and expert on Africa, Margit Maximillian, not only picks out some strong women, offering intimate insights into the respective countries, but also presents the existing opportunities and problems in sub-Saharan Africa today.
