Abstract

Swami Vivekananda was an epitome of strength and crusader of human values. He poured his mind and soul into identifying the obstacles encountered by the common man and tirelessly worked toward the upliftment of women’s education and their empowerment in society. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a decent social activity through which organizations have scope for ensuring a development in the position of Indian women. The objectives of this research are to (a) reflect upon Swami Vivekananda’s teachings on the need for women’s education and empowerment in India, (b) throw light on the present position of women’s education and empowerment in India, (c) understand how women empowerment acts as a road map for corporate social responsibility (CSR) in India, and (d) recognize the various schemes that have been implemented by our Government, Self-Help Groups (SHGs), and companies (both public and private) for the promotion of women empowerment as a part of CSR activity in India.
