Women - Haitian

Haitian women are considered the back bond of the Haitian society. Life for the typical Haitian woman is hard and difficult. The role of the majority of Haitian women limited to domestic work and selling products in the public market.

The International women's right's movement has contributed a lot to women well been in general and to those in Haiti in particular. However, due to economic difficulties that seems to be permanent in Haiti, the Haitian women continue to victim of crime, rape, physical and sexual abuse from men.

In some slums in Haiti, many women and their children have no access to health care. Children play in dirt. It is difficult for the Haitian woman to take care of their family.
