Women’s Empowerment, Population Dynamics, and Socioeconomic Development

Recently completed

Topics

Although often excluded from research on social and economic development, women’s empowerment has been an important factor. Women contribute to social and economic development as workers, mothers, and political actors; therefore, constructive discussions of social and economic development in the 21st century should include women’s empowerment as a key component. This study brings together a multidisciplinary committee of experts to examine the impact of women’s empowerment and associated population dynamics on social and economic development. The study will develop a comprehensive conceptual framework, review the current state of knowledge, critically assess policy options, and set an agenda for future research.
