Women’s Rights

Women’s rights refer to the freedoms, entitlements, and protections granted to women in various aspects of life, including social, political, legal, and economic spheres. These rights advocate for gender equality and aim to eliminate discrimination against women. The concept encompasses a wide range of issues, including the right to vote, access to education, reproductive rights, employment equity, protection against gender-based violence, and the right to participate fully in societal decision-making processes. Women’s rights movements have historically worked to challenge traditional gender roles and fight for the equal treatment of women and girls around the world. The recognition and enforcement of women’s rights are considered essential for achieving overall social justice and human rights.
