Mauritius, a group of islands in Africa, has made significant strides in women’s empowerment, with a woman as president in 2015 and 39% of senior government positions being held by women. However, the country still faces serious drug use rates, particularly among women. Mauritius is known for its good governance and human development, but its policies fail to address gender gaps and drug issues, particularly among women. The country’s official languages are English and French, and its major religions are Hinduism and Christianity.
