Abstract

omen's education has been identified as a key catalyst for promoting development. Conversely, a primary challenge encountered by many developing nations is the problem of female illiteracy. This study focuses on the obstacles,physical,institutional,and other main barriers that hinder women from seeking higher education. The study was conducted in the rural parts of Sargodha District, located in Punjab, Pakistan. Athorough survey was produced using a pre-made formula that included structured questions. Data from 129 respondents was collected using purposive sampling. Research has established that women are more susceptible to educational disadvantages as a result of both physical and architectural obstacles. The collected data indicates that the promotion of women's education in the area will be facilitated through the enlargement of educational facilities exclusively for females, as well as the improvement of transportation and infrastructure.
