dc.description.abstractThe Commonwealth of Dominica (Dominica) is a multiparty unicameral parliamentary democracy. According to data from the 2011 Census, the population has fallen in every census since 1981, standing now at some 73,000 people. As throughout the world, men are more active in the labor force than women. The labor force participation rate for men was 70.6 percent, compared to 59.5 per cent for women, and unemployment for women was 19.5 percent, versus 15 percent for men. The adolescent fertility rate in Dominica stands at 40.3 per thousand females, aged 15 to 19 years. There is no easily accessible data on some key indicators of the status of women such as those for maternal and child health, contraceptive prevalence, and unmet contraceptive needs. There is also no accessible data which examines the living conditions of the indigenous population separately as a group of special interest.en
