Energy and gender In Latin America and the Caribbean, poverty and its effects are accentuated for women because only 50% of them earn their own income, while four out of five men earn income through employment. Stark differences can also be noticed in access to development opportunities between women and men. For example, according to the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves, literacy rates for women are 55% in El Salvador, 60% in Bolivia and 54% in Brazil, while the economic empowerment and opportunity of women is 55%, 60% and 64% respectively.48 In the arena of energy, the symptoms of gender inequality are expressed, for example, through the incidence of diseases related to traditional cooking amongst women in rural areas, where gender roles usually leave them responsible for cooking in the home. Consequently, women are most exposed to harm from the air pollution inside their homes. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major public health problem in many Latin American and Caribbean countries. In a study of a clinic specialising in respiratory illnesses in Mexico, 30% of patients admitted with COPD had been exposed to woodsmoke, and of that 30%, the majority were women.49 Source: Latin American Energy Organisation (OLADE), 2012.47 14 Low-Carbon Development in Latin America and the Caribbean: Evolution, experiences and challenges Uruguay Barbados Costa Rica Paraguay Brazil Venezuela Chile Mexico Cuba Trinidad & Tobago Grenada Argentina Dominican Republic El Salvador Colombia Ecuador Jamaica Belize Suriname Panama Guatemala Honduras Guyana Peru Bolivia Nicaragua Haiti Electricity coverage (%)PDF Image | Low-Carbon Development in Latin America
