Abstract

Education helps the women not only in gaining knowledge but also enables her to earn a living. An educated woman plays an important role in a family, dealing with both health care and financial support to the family. Higher education helps women to have a better understanding of social and political processes beyond the home in far-reaching social structure and makes her a wise citizen with effective social and political action. Higher education helps women to be mentally and emotionally stronger and to face challenges and overcome obstacles in life and to be a complete woman.The participation of women in decision making is not merely a reflection of their constitutional and democratic political right but will also contribute to the development of women as well as of the society. Decision-making attests to the empowerment of the various actors involved.At present, far too few women possess this attitude. Women teachers at all levels of education and in academic disciplines that are traditionally male dominated, such as the scientific and technological fields. Political empowerment of women, acquisition and equal exercise of power, and active and full participation, at higher level of decision making have come to figure not merely as the strategies for women’s advancement, but also as the goals for women’s movement, both nationally and internationally Key Words: Academics, Education, Empowerment, Movement, Women Policy
