Studies from Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan have clearly shown that parents refrain from sending their daughters to school not so much because they fear for their daughter’s safety, but because they are wary of upsetting traditional gender roles which give girls little choice in matters of Education.
(Kanwar and Taplin, 2001)

It is on this believe that argued that Women all
over the world have been categorized under
the disadvantaged groups of people and society
itself has systematically and consistently
pursued the socialization of women into
accepting the notion of disadvantaged group.

When women are given the requisite education,
relevant to their needs and environment, they
will gradually become more visible and
recognised in the mainstream of activities both
at home and in
society at large.

Empowerment
Empowerment is the process and the result of the process
whereby the powerless or less powerful members of the
society gain greater access and control over material and
knowledge, resources, challenges and ideologies of
discrimination and subordination and transform the
institutions and structures through which unequal access
and control over resources is sustained and perpetuated. 10

Distance Education

Therefore, distance education becomes an inevitable tool for providing skills-based education and training. Research evidence also shows that “women with more education or higher qualifications earn more, on an average, than women with minimum level of education” (McIntosh, 1973, p.28).
