The role of women in the development process depends largely on the nature of the socio-cultural framework around her and on the economic development achieved in society, as well as the state policies related to women.

The study included three sections, the first one discusses the spatial dimensions of female size in Africa, the second presents the spatial dimensions of the economic conditions of African women, and the third one discusses the spatial dimensions of the political conditions of African women.
