| dc.description.abstract | This study was intended to unveil, the causes of the low food intake among pregnant women. The importance of studying such an issue was in line with the fact that pregnant women together with the rest of other women are, to a larger extent, the great contributors to the socioeconomic development of their societies, especially LDCs. Failure to understand their problems means risking both productivity and health in such countries. The discussions in chapters one, two and three and later, the findings in chapter four on this problem reveals that much has to be done if the worse food situation, of pregnant women is to be alleviated to the benefit of the society. Multidisciplinary action is suggested, but given the worse socio-economic and political conditions of the developing countries the food intake among pregnant women should be sought within the limits of those countries, in terms of manpower and existing resources. Depending on the foreign assistance, will ultimately jeopardize our own ability to development. Like other fads e, g. Integrated Rural Development, Poverty alleviation, Democracy, Human basic needs, Women in Development is a worthy issue for consideration, but in the end it is defined from the outside in way that never meaningfully engages the people themselves. nor challenges the economic or social modeling fundamental way. The last chapter (v) summarises and concludes the theme of this study. | en_US |
