Women Empowerment

Abstract

Throughout the history of mankind, women have been treated as subordinate beings in comparison to their male counterparts. Right from the childhood days women are patterned to live in a way which would benefit the men and accept the hegemony of men in the society. To come out of this misery women first need to generate a feeling within themselves that they are not born to remain as a puppet in the hands of men, they have their own identity, their own goals and desires to fulfill. This can only happen through female education and awareness which would generate a sense of developing their identity in the society. In the 21st century undoubtedly women throughout the world have covered a lot of ground in a way towards their upliftment and growing their independent voice in the society. But still there is a lot to go in the process of empowering women to be at par with men. Woman Empowerment should not be contextualized in a country specific way. Women irrespective of their Nationality, form a world community as their problems and interests are common in a lot of way.
