Sinopsis

This edited volume assesses the progress that sub-Saharan African countries have made towards gender equality and offers strategies that can be used to empower African women to contribute to the fulfilment of the United NationsâÇÖ (UN) 2030 sustainable development goals (SDGs). The contributing authors consider the goals identified during the 1995áUnited Nations World Conference on Women and the 2015 UN World Conference on Sustainable Development in New York-includingáno poverty, healthy life, quality education, gender equality, peace and justice, reduced inequalities, and decent work and economic growth-and document the advances made on these goals, with a special emphasis on African womenâÇÖs experiences.áThey provide innovative ideas for accelerating achievement of the SDGs and address challenges and opportunities in tourism, business, politics, entrepreneurship, academia, financial inclusion, and the digital gender divide.This book will be of value to policymakers, non-profit organisations focused on gender equality and sustainable development, and academics and scholars who teach and study gender-related issues in the African continent.á
