Women’s
empowerment is the need for today as 50 percent of the population is
of women across the globe. When we talk about empowerment, it
actually means giving full power, independence and authority to live
life. And as we are living in the 22nd century, women certainly
requires equality to live freely and take major decisions of life.
Though,
you will notice that as compared to men women have lesser power and
they have the lesser freedom to live their own life. So, the time has
come to give them equality to walk hand in hand with men because no
country will prosper without the equality with men. Without their
participation, no development work is ensured in any arena. It is the
demand of time where women empowerment has become significant.
Emphasizing on the today’s fact women development and women
empowerment are two inseparable factors and are interrelated. This is
the only reason many women NGO are working for women and their
development. The government is also showing its concern on this
important point.
Earlier,
no power was given to women, they had not been given the freedom of
speech against the exploitation they faced. In the 19th and 20th
century, many protest and voices were raised against the harassment
of women and their rights of equality were advocated.
It
is a fact that people who are fighting for women’s liberation are
facing severe hindrances. Initially, they were unable to amend the
rules and regulations for them but nowadays, many NGOs are fighting
for women and girls right. They are aiming to provide them with the
best education, training, vocational courses etc. for their
upliftment. By the help of such course, many women and girls are able
to earn bread and butter thus, living their life smoothly. As poverty
is one of the major concern for anyone, the support is being offered
to stand on their own feet.
The
women’s empowerment is being accelerated throughout the world and
women are being motivated to play a vital role in diverse sectors
including home and job front.
