Type de matériel :
TexteLangue : français Détails de publication : 2023.
Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : Based on the example of Côte d’Ivoire, this article proposes a measure of the status of women and looks at its relationship with the well-being of children (proxied by their educational opportunities and their exposure to work or hazardous child labour). It is based on a specific methodological pluralism combining quantitative methods used in development economics and the qualitative contributions of field studies by anthropologists, historians, and demographers. This article shows that a better social, symbolic and economic position of women reduce gender inequalities in school attendance but do not decrease their vulnerability to (hazardous) child labour.
