Mankranso (Ashanti Region) 21 April Participants at a three-day workshop on gender sensitization have recommended that women's education should be made a national priority. This is because they said only education will empower women to break the monopoly of men and the "culture of silence". These were contained in a resolution adopted at the end of the workshop for service providers and some traditional rulers drawn from the Ahafo-Ano South district at Mankranso.
