She Will Rise

 “Every investment that empowers a woman sparks a ripple effect that influences not only her life, but the lives of her family and community, too”

            Gender equality is a basic human right, and it is also fundamental to have a peaceful, prosperous world. But girls and women continue to face significant challenges all around the world. Women are typically underrepresented in power and decision-making roles. They receive unequal pay for equal work, and they often face legal and other barriers that affect their opportunities at work. And because of that, we should pay attention to empowering women.

            Women's empowerment includes promoting women's self-esteem, ability to make their own decisions, and right to influence societal change for themselves and others. They deserve to be empowered not only because women are humans with equal rights but also because investing in and developing women opens a torrent of potential for the whole world. Women's empowerment is essential for the health and socio-economic development of families, communities, and countries. They can also assist power sustainable economies while also benefiting society and mankind as a whole.

             Around the world and throughout history, women have come together in different types of groups to offer each other support and address barriers together. These organizations have built resilience and possibilities for women and their families, often in the absence of traditional safety nets. The strength of these organizations has been built on the unity that emerges through interaction and collaborative problem-solving.

Furthermore, the current COVID-19 crisis deeply impacts women, men, girls, boys, and other genders differently. Women have faced several challenges since covid-19 emerged in the country, but they have not given up. During the crisis, they showcase different characteristics as an empowered woman during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Women have also suffered as a result of the pandemic's consequences, but they continue to fight for a better future. And they unleash their power and abilities to claim their dreams and goals.

             They have charm, wit, strength, and power beyond what they think they’re capable of. They also have the knowledge and resources to learn more, do more, and achieve more. Women have the skills and life experience and that gives them their unique perspective on the world.

Let us all work together to support and empower women because I think that healthy, educated, and empowered women and girls are change agents. When women and girls are supported, they have more opportunities to fight for their rights and their communities.
