- Exclusion, poverty and inequality in decentralized Kenyan forests: Bridging the divideObonyo, Emily; Ongugo, Paul O.; Mogoi, Jephine; Njuguna, Jane (IASC, 2007)Women's contributions are essential to the functioning of Kenya's economy. However, because women's contributions are not valued in the same way as men's, women consistently find themselves at a lower economic status than men. Women are largely excluded from economic decision-making, face low wages, have poor working conditions, limited employment and professional opportunities. Their unpaid work is also not measured and not valued in national accounts. Women often face inequality due to the fact that they earn less income and face unequal distribution of resources. The situation is further aggravated by lack of access to education and job segregation.
