As a result of gender discrimination the status of women is subordinate to men and they have little access to education food nutrition health care employment and wages. Empowerment of women involves the improvement of their status in the family community and society. It ensures women's accessibility to modern development facilities and extends their participation in social economic and political process and decision making. Efforts have been made by the government to empower women by adopting some legislative measures and development programmes for women. The book is largely the outcome of One Day Regional Seminar on gender inequality held at the Department of Social Studies and Rural Development (Palli Charcha Kendra) Visva Bharati Sriniketan in February 2004.
