dc.description.abstractThis long essay is a reaseach on some forms of oppression that women encounter at work in Kenya, It has made me to examine aspects of women oppression in a global way as a social minister. However, the research is by no means exhaustive due to the wide range of literature on the subject. Attempt is made to use the Tangaza methodology of See, Judge and Act in analysing primary sources for the most part as well as secondary research. The essay focuses on women descrimination at work and in development dimensions in the country. The analysis starts with the geographical set up of women's status in Kenya with some of the constraints that hinder women's effective participation in the developmental processes, discriminatory and oppressive practices which women encounter in the society and in Gods creation. The essay has brought to the fore different kinds of oppression against women, the effect and impact of discrimination and the root causes of oppression. It is also underlined that women rights need to be acknowledged like any other human rights in the society. Also stressed is the fact that without progress in women development, there can be no true of integral human development in our society. The struggle for women's equality is part of the struggle for a better world for all human beings and all societies. The essay points out that women are the primary providers in the household, and have struggled to find the means for family survival. The Bible provides evidence of women as well as men taking an active part in society. The essay also recommends women for their great work and readiness to support one another in their struggles to fight for equality. At the end, there are proposals for action which social ministers need to take into consideration for effective ministry. It is my hope that this document will be useful to all who will read it,en_US
