Empowerment of women and improving their status are essential to realizing the full potential of economic, political, and social development and is an important end itself. One woman brings hope to her family, many women bring hope to humanity. Empowering a woman will ensure that her entire family receives better health care and nutrition. This indicates that providing equal access to education, credit, property and employment for women, will ensure economic justice and sustainability for all.
Women encounter challenges every day. Apart from sharing their communities' struggles over limited resources like water, land or jobs, many systematically face discrimination simply by virtue of being female. This includes physical and sexual violence, being kept out of school, disproportionate vulnerability to HIV infection and lack of access to property and other rights.
Empowering a woman will ensure that her entire family receives better health care and nutrition. This indicates that providing equal access to education, credit, property, and employment for women, will ensure economic sustainability for all. Empowering women through business and investment increases the capacity and motivation of women to take on new and challenging roles at higher levels coupled with the zeal to perform satisfactorily.

One woman brings hope to her family, many women bring hope to humanity. Empowering a woman will ensure that her entire family receives better health care and nutrition.
