People sometimes ask why we mostly focus on women and children.70 % of women in developing countries live in poverty. Worldwide more women have died due to bad pre-natal care in the last 50 years than all the men who died in all the three major wars of the 20th century. Women do 60% of the world’s work and own 1% of its land. Women are more likely to be trafficked, sold into the sex industry, face death or violence at the hands of a partner, be raped, be uneducated, not allowed the basic human right to decide their own life, have a child marriage, face genital mutilation or be unable to get out of poverty.
