- Description
- This book presents a disturbing picture of non-consensual sex among children and young adults in developing countries. It documents a range of non-consensual experiences--from unwanted touch to forced penetrative sex and gang rape--and sheds light on the experience of young males as both victims and perpetrators, and the unsupportive and sometimes abusive roles of families, teachers, health care providers and law enforcement agents. It argues for a radical review and reform of programs designed to prevent abuse and support survivors.

- Description
- The papers in this volume examine the links between gender, time use, and poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa. They contribute to a broader definition of poverty to include 'time poverty,' and to a broader definition of work to include household work. The papers present a conceptual framework linking both market and household work, review some of the available literature and surveys on time use in Africa, and use tools and approaches drawn from analysis of consumption-based poverty to develop the concept of a time poverty line and to examine linkages between time poverty, consumption poverty, and other dimensions of development in Africa such as education and child labor.
