“As women Achieve power, the barriers will fall. As society sees what women can do, as women see what women can do, there will be more women out there doing things, and we’ll all be better off for it.”
Women’s empowerment refers to the activities undertaken to improve the social, economic, and political status of women in the world. Throughout history, the female gender has faced subjugation and systematic oppression. However, efforts to empower women aim to change this narrative and create a more equitable society.
