Empowerment also entails giving them access to the skills and assets they need to succeed, such as mentorship programmes, leadership development opportunities, and financial resources. Women who are empowered have the potential to significantly influence social and economic progress in both their personal lives and in their communities. Women should be given equal opportunities in order to create an egalitarian environment.
