Women in Cape Verde

Women in Cape Verde

Cape Verde is a traditional, “macho” culture. Although women are found in all sectors of society, including staff leadership positions, the people of Cape Verde at the local community level may not have had much experience with women who take professional roles or live independently from their families. This is especially true in small villages and remote areas of Cape Verde. [http://www.peacecorps.gov/welcomebooks/cvwb655.pdf "The Peace Corps Welcomes You to Cape Verde"] . Peace Corps (April 2006).
