Summary, etc This edited volume presents a wide-ranging and in-depth exploration of gender issues and the empowerment of women within a global and developmental context, with particular emphasis on developing regions. It examines the structural and systemic roots of gender inequality, including social, cultural, economic, and political dimensions that shape women’s lives. The book addresses critical themes such as access to education, healthcare, employment, and resources, as well as issues related to reproductive health, decision-making power, and social justice. Through a combination of theoretical perspectives and empirical studies, it highlights the intersection of gender with factors like poverty, demography, and policy environments. The work further evaluates existing development strategies and policy interventions aimed at promoting gender equity and women’s empowerment, offering insights into challenges, progress, and future directions. It serves as a comprehensive resource for understanding gender dynamics and their implications for inclusive and sustainable development.
