Nahida Parvin, Md. Jahangir Alam
Abstract

 

 

The empowerment of women has become a commonly used term, indicating the ever-increasing importance of the role that women play to eradicate poverty. In Bangladesh survey revealed that women produce about 45 percent of the people consume, while in Asia the figure is about 50 percent. Despite this fact, however, women rarely receive the recognition they deserve for their work. In developing countries, it is crucially important to shed light on the considerable contribution that rural women are making and assess it properly.  Poverty is a most universal concern all over the world and in Bangladesh. Uphold the edification segment for women to play an imperative part for poverty alleviation. Particularly for the pastoral and suburban vicinity where 67 percent of the entire population resides, promoting women’s education might perform as a moral fiber to eradicate poverty. Education will increase not only the opportunities for women but also in various aspects as the voice of saying ‘no’. The purpose of this study is to explore the opportunities for women which we may use as a parameter of poverty alleviation through women empowerment. This study conducted targeting some districts of Bangladesh and collected information based on the objective of the study. Survey revealed some significant findings about social and cultural barriers to attain education and education could bring more opportunity for women.
