Women Education and Sustainable Development

Abstract

This paper looks at the role the education of women plays in sustaining national development. The human person is seen as the question of all questions and the mystery of all mysteries. Humanity is comprised of both men and women and women occupy a greater percentage of the human populace. Education is seen as a liberating tool and the role women play in development cannot be overemphasized, hence educating them is quite necessary. They combine their roles as mothers, wives, daughter, intellectuals and so on to facilitate positive changes. This paper argues and concludes that any nation that wants sustainable development, protecting and preservation of her heritage, ought to educate women.
