Contribution of women empowerment towards the development in Rwanda: Case of ...Premier Publishers
The main objective of this study was to examine the contribution of women empowerment towards development in Rwanda, using Duhaguruke/Kora cooperative as a case study. The following were the specific objectives; investigate how economic activities contribute to women empowerment, explore challenges to the effective women empowerment and propose the solutions to those challenges. Data were collected from 93 respondents using questionnaires, group discussions and interviews. The cluster sampling method and simple random sampling methods were used. Findings revealed that economic activities empower women in community and they can contribute to the socio-economic development by educating their children, establishing businesses and paying taxes, paying health insurance for the family members, influence the family welfare, participation in decision making at local level through incomes from their jobs and employment. High fertility rate and gender inequalities within households were revealed as the most challenges to the effective women empowerment, other challenges observed were low education level and lack of professionalism, irresponsibility of men which affect negatively the loans management for women. Solutions suggested by participants were low fertility rate and gender equality within the family, women's education and participation in women's associations, legal marriage and greater access to credits.

Education and women’s participation in Indian economy: A regional analysisMain Uddin
The paper examines the work participation rate (WPR) of women in Indian states based on the census
conducted in 2001. As per 2001 census, the WPR of women was 25.6% in India though they constituted
48.27% of the total population. It was well documented that the educational condition of women has
improved in the past few decades but their WPR is still low. Here, the paper tried to see reasons behind
this anomaly. There are many determinants of WPR but the author limit this paper to education. The
paper is based on the hypothesis of increasing women WPR with educational development. The
correlation matrix between occupational composition and educational development shows significant
relation. This implies that education is one of the reasons for increasing WPR. In addition, it was found
that women with primary education are actively engaged in agricultural sector. Finally, the paper
concludes with some general observations and suggestions.

Women’s labour is a rich and valuable resource for a country as it can significantly boost growth prospects and improve socio-economic conditions as also ensure better outcomes for the next generation. Therefore, enhancing women participation in the labour force is a critical endeavour for driving overall social and sustainable development.
Despite positive growth and development parameters in the last 20-25 years, India has experienced a continuous decline in its female labour force participation rate (FLFPR). The total FLFPR declined sharply from 42.7% in 2004-05 to 31.2% in 2011-12 which further declined to 27.4% in 2015-2016. In 2013, International Labour Organization (ILO) ranked India’s FLFPR at 121 out of 130 countries, one of the lowest in the world. India also secured a poor rank in the Global Gender Gap Report 2017 by World Economic Forum, where it was ranked 108 out of 144 economies.
The largest drop in FLFPR took place in rural areas and was specifically prominent in the working age group of 20-44 years. This is a major factor that is responsible for pulling down the overall FLFPR. On the other hand, the urban FLFPR which has been historically lower than the rural FLFPR, has fluctuated.

Quality of Work Life of Women Employee Problems in Banking Sector: A Study in...IJAEMSJORNAL
Indian Banking Industry which is more than a century, passed through many phases in the last 100 years like social control, nationalization, liberalization, privatization, globalization and finally computerization. To keep the pace with the competitiveness derived from the above changes the banking industry, which is the area of concern being manpower intensive, must consider the role of human resource as the most significant key to enhance the profitability, efficiency and overall organizational effectiveness. Women working and earning something is a part of a modern phenomenon, but even now a day’s majority of the women have been challenged by inequality in the workforce. A women worker obviously plays a double role, the traditional feminine role of a house wife or mother or daughter and that of a worker. With the multiplicity of roles her behaviour becomes complex in terms of expected and actual conduct, and she faces a lot of confusion with regard to her role and status. The two roles might sometimes lead to a conflict, which is reflected in many ways in her life.
Women constitute ½ of the world’s population, 2/3 of the world’s labour force but get 1/10th of the world’s income and 1% of the world’s Wealth.
As per 2001 Census, 23% of women are in the work force. 94% of all working women are in the informal sector.
What are the labour laws for Empowerment of women ?
Ans. 2. The labour laws for empowerment of women are based on principle of gender justice. They are as follows:
Equal Remuneration Act, 1976 ensures equal opportunity, equal treatment and equal wages.
Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 provides 90 days paid leave for working women
The Factories Act, 1948 – Section 34 provides that the State government can lay down rules prescribing weights that may be carried by men and women.
The Contract Labour (Abolition and Regulation) Act and Rules- separate provision of utilities for women and fixed working hours.
Women in the unorganized sector don’t get benefits of the labour laws.
Economic Contribution of Women in Self Help Groups: Village Level Evidence fr...iosrjce
Women in Self Help Groups (SHGs) have made their mark in the rural economy in a quite nontraditional
way. This paper examines the economic contribution of SHG women drawing on a field survey
conducted in 20 villages by canvassing a structured schedule among 150 sample respondents of two blocks of
Balasore district in Odisha, India. The findings show that women in SHG’s have made a significantly positive
contribution to employment, income, expenditure and saving at the household level. An increase in the demand
for SHG products is required for improving productivity of women and enhancing their economic contribution
in a sustainable way. A reorientation in policy is suggested for generating awareness, upgrading skills and
expanding markets in order to augment their contribution and raise their empowerment level for the benefit of
the households as well as for transforming the rural economy in a big way.

What is ‘Women’s Studies’ ?
Women’s Studies as an academic discipline is a science concerned about women’s equality with man and the development of women. It provides an analytical tool, a worldview to understand the status of women and an alternative view point to existing knowledge construction. It is interdisciplinary in perspective. It is a partisan discipline,i.e. it is pro-women; at the same time, not anti-men. It emphasizes the need for providing a material basis for women’s independence and autonomy. Important objectives of women’s studies are as follows :
• To facilitate the process of understanding, recognizing and giving due importance to the contributions made by women and men.
• To examine the reasons for subordination of women and for male domination.
• To empower women to attain gender justice and an effective role in all decision – making processes.
• To evolve development alternatives with women.
• To ensure visibility of women as change agents for the enhancement of the status of women.
• To identify and understand roots of inequality that result in invisibility, marginalization and exclusion of women from the intellectual world.
• To support social action aimed at equality, development, peace, education, health and employment of women.

Women Empowerment in Relation to Indian Economyijtsrd
While the Indian government left no stone unturned in overhauling the economy and providing the much needed impetus to MSMEs, we read stories of both the resilience and the struggle of women entrepreneurs wading through a sea of problems and yet refusing to give up. Therefore, it is our social and moral obligation to facilitate an enabling environment for women desirous of entering the workforce by rendering them equal opportunities and opening up new avenues for them to thrive. Despite India’s general progress in terms of the number of women entrepreneurs in the country, there still remains a considerable gender gap that needs to be closed. Currently, women only account for 13.56 per cent in the entrepreneurial space and have a significantly disproportionate presence in the labour force. Though the government has been making continuous efforts to empower women in India, they continue to be, by and large, hobbled by disempowerment, financial dependency and inequalities. As per the India SDG Index, India has secured a score of 42 on a scale of 100 on the indicator of “Gender Equalityâ€. The figures from the latest Periodic Labour Force Survey also lay bare the vast gender inequality An abysmal 19.7 per cent rural women and 16.1 per cent of women in urban areas were found to be in the labour force. To plug these gaps and work towards an inclusive society, every stakeholder has to do more.

Women Workers in Informal Sector in India: Understanding the Occupational Vul...Dr Lendy Spires
Unorganised or informal sector constitutes a pivotal part of the Indian economy. More than 90 per cent of workforce and about 50 per cent of the national product are accounted for by the informal economy. A high proportion of socially and economically underprivileged sections of society are concentrated in the informal economic activities [1]. Informal employment is generally a larger source of employment for women than for men in the developing world. Other than in North Africa where 43 per cent of women workers are in informal employment, 60 per cent or more of women workers in the developing world are in informal employment(outside agriculture).
In sub-Saharan Africa 84 per cent of women non-agricultural workers; in Latin America 58 per cent for women in comparison to 48 percent for men. In Asia, the proportion of women and men non-agricultural workers in informal employment is roughly equivalentto Women and Men in the Informal Economy [2].The informal economy in India employs about 86 per cent of the country’s work force and 91 per cent of its women workers [3]. Many of these women workers are primary earners for their families. Their earnings are necessary for sheer survival. Low income women workers, especially in the informal sectorform one of the most vulnerable groups in the Indian economy.
The reasons for their vulnerability are-(a) irregular work, (b) low economic status, (c) little or no bargaining power, (d) lack of control over earnings, (e) need to balance paid work with care for children and homework, (f) little or no access to institutional credit, training and information, and (g) lack of assets. Unequal gender relations play a very important role in defining their insecurities. Given their vulnerable status at home and at work, income generation alone may not improve the socio-economic status of women attached to the informal sector. Their economic empowerment needs to go along with political empowerment, which could improve their bargaining power both in household and at work.
This means that organizing women workers in the informl economy could have beneficial impacts on their work and their life if such organizationcombines voices representation along with access to resources such as credit and information- a holistic strategy that provides political empowerment allied with economic empowerment.The present study aims at understanding the degree of vulnerabilityof the women workers in informal sector in India.
A Review on Women’s Role in Economic Development in IndiaAnuragSingh1049
In preparation of the Survey on theRole of Indian Women in Development, collaboration was maintained with members of the United Nations Inter-Agency Network on Women and Gender Equality (IANWGE), including, inter alia, the International Labour Organization; the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS; the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights; Population Division of the United Nations Department for Economic and Social Affairs; the Statistics Division of the United Nations Department for Economic and Social Affairs; the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees; and the United Nations Office for Drugs and Crime. IANWGE members provided substantive inputs, commented on several drafts, and guided the formulation of recommendations. The International Organization on Migration also contributed substantively.Looking at the above opportunities, India has also supported many women entrepreneurs by providing loans and advances, helping them to establish their business, making them self-sufficient by providing vocational skills, and creating many jobs for other women in the respective areas. These opportunities are need-based in India, and many factors are driving these forces.
Usefulness of farm women training programmes in livelihood securityAbdullaAlAsif1
The study was conducted at sadar upazila of Patuakhali district to determine the extent of usefulness of farm women training program in livelihood security and explore relationships with their 11 selected characteristics namely Age, Education, Family size, Family education, Training experience, Agricultural knowledge, Family co-operation, Annual family income, Decision making ability, Communication and Fatalism. Data were collected from 106 rural farm women (housewives) using pre-tested interview schedule during 10 July, 2014 to 20 August, 2014. Findings of the study indicated that the usefulness scores of women ranged from 25 to 62 with a mean 38.45 and standard deviation 11.21 against the possible range of 0 to 75. and 45.28 percent of the women had medium, 34.91 percent of them had low and 19.81 percent of the women had high usefulness of training programmes. The coefficient of correlation showed that out of 11 selected characteristics of the farm women, age had negative significant relationship, and rest of ten characteristics had positive significant relationships with usefulness of training programmes in livelihood security.

Investigations were carried out to see the effect of pesticide 'companion' on the proximal composition and enzyme namely amylase, GOT and GPT of whole green gram in the early stages of germination. The findings revealed that the pesticides increase the enzyme activity in the early stages of germination and thus increase the metabolic rate. The Vitamin-C content was also enhanced with the use of pesticide, but there was a decrease in the proximal composition of the gram when treated with pesticide.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
