Empowerment of Rural Women through Participation in Village Health Programme in District Barabanki
Journal Title: Research Journal of Philosophy & Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Empowerment can take place at a hierarchy of different levels –individual, household, community and societal and is facilitated by providing encouraging factors e.g., exposure to new activities, which can build capacities and removing inhibiting factors.The study shows that female empowerment is successfully emerging as very important link between community & health service delivery system. Husband & family support are crucial for women to successfully deliver the tasks. Women of weaker section have strong motivation & economic reasons to learn their tasks. Formal education level has no impact in learning ability for special technical skills. This study also shows that by participation in this programme these VHWs were able to bring changes in social domain and to generate limited income; but these changes have not ensured economic empowerment and still have not gained a position to influence critical decision making related to household decisions.
