Gender Equality and Women Empowerment is one of UNESCO's global priorities. To exercise the basic human right of gender equality, women across the world require equal access to education, employment, and basic services. Presently, women lack access to these basic requirements for a variety of reasons due to various local cultural and socio-economic influences, geography, legal structures, etc. Women empowerment means empowering women physically, socially, and emotionally. When women in the country are empowered with education and career, they are improving the economic status of the family and help reduce poverty in the country. With women's empowerment, the productivity of the family and the entire community improves. It is said that when the women in a family are educated the future generation is getting a better chance.
