Book Description
The book titled: "Being a Woman in Papua New Guinea: From Grass Skirts and Ashes to Education and Global Change" aims to address the plight of women and the girl child in developing Papua New Guinea (PNG). It has been widely publicized, and confronts social and cultural issues that affect PNG as a developing nation. This is the first time a Papua New Guinean woman has confronted some very sensitive cultural issues in a male dominated developing country. Some issues confronted in this book include: Bride Price, Polygamy, Domestic Violence, and girls being compromised and valued for less than pigs and material goods.
