Women’s work is never done”. In Laos, there are gender issues that greatly favor men and boys. I’m working on a future blog that discusses women’s work. IMHO: women do far more labor then men and people doing community development need to consider this fact when they bring new economic opportunity to a village. What more can be piled on the backs of women and girls?
