Answer 1

Explanation:

Five factors of women marginalization in Ghana (Africa) are illiteracy, lack of laws, lack of enforcement of law, cultural believes and non-serious behavior of the government. Lack of literacy is the major problem of the people of Africa. If they are educated they will be able to know the importance of women in the society. First there was no law for the well being of women and if there is any so the government is not serious in enforcing it in the society. One of the major problem of this marginalization is the cultural beliefs. The elders of the people also marginalize the women so their young generations do the same.
