Empowerment of Women: - A Solution to Gender Discrimination - A Study

Abstract

The era when women were restricted to domestic duties and raising children within the confines of their homes has long passed. The landscape today looks markedly different, with women carving out their own identities and presence across every sphere of life. They represent a vital part of society and contribute meaningfully to national progress. Both nationally and internationally, legal frameworks exist to safeguard women’s interests, and constitutional and legal remedies remain accessible whenever their rights are violated.
This paper examines why women’s empowerment is necessary, whether it represents a meaningful step toward gender equality, the underlying justifications for empowering women, and the legal landscape—both domestic and international—governing women’s empowerment.
