Empowerment of Women Through Education
Hello ladies good morning. I am happy to take part in this contest organized by @shiftitamanna on an interesting topic "Empowerment of Women Through Education".
Women deserve to be empowered in all facets of life to become independent. They are not supposed to be dependent on a man for everything. Yes women are meant to support their husbands they are not to be dependent.
It is good for every parents to empower their female wards who grows up to become women with not just education but quality education. Education is a great tool of defense and boldness in women. Any woman that is educated is bold and has confidence in herself. She knows how to pass on and instill knowledge into her children.
Education is also a tool for financial independence for a woman. With her education she is able to get a clean job or if she wants to go into business she does it intelligently. Education helps Women to defend themselves from abusive husbands who are violent. She knows the right channels to make her reports and the security agents to access for her security and safety. Women empowerment through education is key for sustainable development.
Yes women face all manner of obstacles and challenges most especially the unlucky ones who get married to abusive husbands.
One of the major obstacles that women face is financial obstacles. Any woman who does not have money to take care of herself and her children is always at the mercy of the man she is married to, most especially abusive husbands.
Many women are going through domestic violence everyday and they cannot voice out because of fear of the society. This basically happen to uneducated women who are timid and illiterate. Because of their state of education they do not know what to do and how to go about it since they had been made by tradition and religion that they are meant to spend their entire lives as only house wives who do domestic work and give birth to children. Education brings out the potential in women and give them confidence.
The effect of education on women is unlimited. Ranging from financial independence. She is industrious and has money to take care of herself, children and extend to her family.
An educated woman takes part in decision making process of the society. She is a positive voice in her enrichment. Her children are outstanding and glaring.
Educated woman knows the decision to make and how to go about if she unfortunately marry abusive husband.
There are many initiatives and programs to empower women through education.
Firstly, parents should give equal rights of access to quality basic education to all their children whether male of female. The same thing that male children are exposed to women should be exposed to equally. House chores should be equally shared among male and female children.
Secondly, women should be given easy access to higher institution of learning.
Thirdly, Women should be encouraged to participate in political and leadership positions.
Fourthly, early girl child marriage should be discouraged completely.

Educating truly empowers women, giving them a voice and also enabling them to know their rights in the make dominated society where we women are not given so much credence as they should.
I enjoyed reading the post, best wishes.

Oye que bonita publicación hablando sobre la mujer como educadora, eso es una gran responsabilidad.
Porque en el caso de la mujer lo hace desde casa y más cuando se tienen hijos y no necesita una licencia para ello eso se aprende solo.
Sin embargo hay que educarse seglarmente también como lo expones.
Yes we need to be educated so we can pass the knowledge to our children. Thanks for stopping by.
