Abstract: This study examines the relationship between women s education and demographic development. More specifically it will focus on the effect that women receiving basic education has on demographics in the countries of Guatemala and Costa Rica. ... The conclusion and implication portion of this project thus examines why Guatemala remains behind in terms of demographic development and why Costa Rica has excelled since the 1970s. The project discovers current projects in Guatemala to change education for women and in turn cause a change in demographic development. The project then finally looks at what must occur through the government for a significant change in child health and women s education in order to supplement organizations within Guatemala striving to a make a change from the bottom up.--p.1,2.
