well gender is something of a big isue in Africa especially Zambia, there are a lot of topics to be discussed, i wonder what eqity and equality would mean to a tipica local woman. i feel that for them it is when food is on the table children are able to go to school, their are being considered in the day to day running of the house. women are so powerful in so many things without realising that they are. the are the ecomists of the House, the minister of Home and foreign affairs, special advisers to the family and make the way as to how they want things to run, yet the man will come in public and get all the praise they are educationists, agriculturist, in short thay are in all the fields of work and do so much amazing thing yet the man would want to be given that credit of having done all that there is
there is a saying that ; behind every succesful man there is a woman: meaning it could be the mother, sister, girlfreind or wife who have it his success possible, hence women are a force to recon with in thew African society
