Keywords:
Educational Status, Women, Health.
Abstract
International initiatives like "The Decade for Women" (1975 85) and "Women, Health and Development" (1992) have clearly highlighted the role of women in education, in health and in society. A special emphasis is given to the rural woman. This article translates these initiatives into the South African situation and underlines the profound impact on all people in this country and on all spheres of life, if the government would invest in, and develop the women in this land.
