Abstract

The population of women in this world is almost half but when we see the life of both men and women in this world then we realize that half of population is living in miserable condition while other half is dominating over them. The patriarchal male domination ideology is the main reason behind the condition of women as they were denied equal opportunities in the different parts of the world. The condition of women was raised after the movements of women empowerment were started all over the world. The rise of feminist ideas has led the tremendous improvement in the condition of women all over the world. Education performed major role to improve the condition of women and made them aware for the rights of women all over the world. Education of women in India has been also a major preoccupation of both as government and civil society as educated and well trained women can play and perform very important role in the development of India very well. The paper presents the effect of education for women empowerment. Key Words:women, women empowerment, empowerment, education Policy
