Material type: TextDescription: 392-399 pSubject(s): In: CHAKRAVORTY S K (EDITOR) PRODUCTIVITYSummary: Socio-economic rights and equality have the potential to form a powerful partnership. Engendered socio-economic rights aim to take account of the power relations in which rights are exercised, in order to enhance the set of feasible options open to women, while at the same time supporting the values of interdependence, solidarity and care, whether or not based on choice. This article attempts to analyse the empowerment process among women through skill development and its conceptual framework in India. It also intends to highlight the process of promoting economic, social, and cultural rights (including the right to work) through skill development. The paper also aspires to look into the bond and bridges created via skill development training, which help the women participant to accumulate Human, Financial & Social capital sufficiently. In India, skill development is demanded economic growth and inclusive development; hence the women cannot be overlooked. Employable skills alone have not been able to generate sufficient autonomy among rural women unless they won’t be associated with entitlements. Establishing mechanisms to ensure women’s individual access and control over socio-economic resources, skills development through imparting skill training should be learnt by women for nurturing them as technical service providers through skill training. This can be able to give women innovative work prospect for interfacing within the family (i.e. social rights) and with the community and local stakeholders outside of the home (i.e. economic rights). Lastly, the analysis is done and conclusions are drawn on the basis of discussion.Item type | Current library | Call number | Vol info | Status | Notes | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | |
