Women empowerment projects also help women in a variety of ways like economic empowerment, supporting women and girls in crisis, poverty alleviation, breaking cycles of gender discrimination and inequality and help women find new opportunities ..
Here are some women empowerment projects like PROJECT SHAKTI, OKHAI AND CLUSTER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS, ONE STOP CENTRES, WOMEN PEACE AND SECURITY AGENDA (WPS) and so many more....
There are many private institutions also who are contributing in developing women empowerment programs and projects like
RELIANCE FOUNDATION
Center for Women Empowerment at NMIT, Bangalore
Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE)
3ie
Institute for What Works to Advance Gender Equality (IWWAGE)
Basically women empowerment also leads to many chances for local women artisans to showcase their work and products and lead them into monetary terms as results. In foreign countries their people like local arts and folk arts .
According to the FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION(FAO), increasing women's empowerment is essential for women's well-being (Women for Women's problems) and has a positive impact on agricultural production, food security, diets and child nutrition.
Another method for women empowerment is to give microcredit to women and there are some microfinance institutions who were giving finances to women for starting small businesses and in the collateral to guarantee as required.
Microcredit institutions do not address cultural barrier that allow men to still control family finance that includes that finance also which was given to women so this is a barrier in terms of successful business for a woman.
Cultural empowerment is also very important for women’s right and equality because it is an integral and huge part of diversity and a medium that seeks to ensure women’s opportunities.
There is a need for equal cultural rights for women to be acknowledged and implemented which would in turn help to reconstruct gender in ways that would rise above women's inferiority and subordination.
Role of education also plays a vital role in particular; education empowers women to make choices that improves their children's education, and acquiring survival skills.
Education is not universally available and gender inequalities persist. A major concern in many countries is not only the limited numbers of girls going to school, but also the number of educational pathways for those that step into the classroom.
There are many articles and blogs about women empowerment and that helps to new generation to know about the difference between position of women at that time and nowadays.
But still many questions are there on women empowerment which are without answers and we are still finding equality in society for women.
