A Study on Women Empowerment through SelfHelp Groups with Special Reference to Ghaziabad in Uttar Pradesh District

Abstract

women’s empowerment is a much debated topic, which has many aspects to it. It is not only multidimensional in approach, but also helps one understand that, when women are empowered, they gain self confidence and actualize their own power and capabilities. Self-empowerment makes women more aware of their erstwhile hidden potential and qualities, and offer requisite opportunities for self-development and progress in socio-economic spheres in life. As we know, empowerment not only changes one’s ideas and perceptions; it also helps create awareness about one’s rights. As far as the employment of women is concerned, the women self-help groups (shgs) in india have been duly recognized as an effective means for empowerment of women in rural as well as in urban areas. Shgs have also brought women together from all spheres of life, helped them speak for themselves and fight for their rights wherever needed. The present paper focuses on the importance of shgs in the lives of rural women. The study for the same was conducted in selected villages of ghaziabad district of uttar pradesh, india.
