Women’s Rights

Women’s rights refer to the legal, social, and economic rights that promote the equality and protection of women in society. This concept encompasses a range of issues including the right to vote, access to education, healthcare, employment, and the ability to live free from violence and discrimination. Women’s rights advocate for gender equality, highlighting the importance of recognizing women as equal to men in all aspects of life. Historically, the movement for women’s rights has evolved through various waves, addressing different challenges faced by women, from suffrage and reproductive rights to workplace equality and protection from domestic violence. Advocates for women’s rights aim to dismantle systemic barriers that contribute to gender inequality and empower women to have autonomy over their own lives.
