Our economy can draw a lot of economic, political, and social benefits from the empowerment of women.
First empowering women can enhance the economic status of a country. To start with, women are better at planning the family budget. Men may be the breadwinners of most families, but women are the ones who manage its budget. Besides, women invest more in the family than men do. It is no secret women dedicate their lives to the prospect of their families including its emotional and physical welfare. To put it in Hilary Clinton's words, "When women participate in the economy, everyone benefits" .
Second, empowered women make good politicians. A family is the smallest institution of society, and women play a core role in developing it. This is because they worry and care about others usually more than men. Also, they are often more responsible than them, because they are driven by a desire to build rather than win, which implies that they focus a lot on the welfare of people. All of these elements add to the idea that women are actually less corrupt than men. In Marget Thatcher's words, "“If you want anything said ask a man, if you want it done ask a woman.”
Third, Empowering women enhances the welfare of families in general. Firstly, educated women improve nutrition, health, and help stem diseases. Also,they can take care of their families in a more efficient way than uneducated ignorant ones. Besides, educated women space their pregnancies and thus have fewer but healthy kids.They know the amount of care and attention every single child needs, which contributes in the building of strong and emotionally and physically healthy families. Harriet B. Stowe was right when she said, "Women are the real architects of society."
To conclude, empowering women through education is a prerequisite in enhancing the social, economical, and political aspects of a country as well as the quality of life for women, men, and the entire family.
