Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 05
Abstract
The global discourse on women’s participation in higher education has gained momentum, signifying a shift towards greater gender inclusivity in educational institutions. Even with significant advancements, there are still gaps in access to and involvement in higher education, especially in areas with socioeconomic difficulties like the Indian districts of Purba and Paschim Medinipur. In this sense, the importance of higher education in influencing socioeconomic growth and empowering individuals is crucial. But a variety of obstacles, like as societal and cultural norms and institutional impediments, prevent women in these regions from pursuing higher education. It is important to comprehend the current state of women’s involvement in higher education in the Purba and Paschim Medinipur districts in order to pinpoint gaps and develop focused solutions. Through an analysis of women’s college establishment trends and enrolment patterns at different levels, this study seeks to understand the current state of women’s involvement in higher education in these districts. The study indicates that despite progress, there are still gender differences in literacy and educational attainment, which adds to the reliance and oppression of women. Comprehensive approaches, such as institutional initiatives, community-based activities, and legislative interventions, are required to address these difficulties. Affirmative action guidelines, grants, gender awareness campaigns, mentorship programmes, and community service projects are among the suggestions. Policymakers, educational institutions, and communities can create inclusive and equitable higher education systems by putting these methods into practice. This will help women reach their full potential and make valuable contributions to society.
