Question 20 • 2023-24 Virtual - World Cultures / Language - Spanish
Answer:
Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information: Women in India have a lower literacy rate than men and are less likely to attend school. They make up less than 14% of the workforce, a much smaller amount than in industrialized countries. Boys are valued more than girls, so families often continue to have children in the hopes of having a boy, contributing to the overpopulation problem. Baby girls are also more likely to die of neglect or malnutrition.
