Empowerment in The 21st Century in Australia

The topic presents about the economic empowerment of women and how it has been
mobilized in the 21st century for making sure that the males and females are treated equally from

achievement of women economic empowerment is necessary though it will require effective
policies, procedures, a holistic approach and long term commitment from the individuals
associated with it. The women will be integrated through gender specific perspectives at the
design stage of policy and ensure that more employment opportunities are created for the women
along with focus on the developmental factors to ensure success growth and development of the
women within the society in the 21st century (Wolf, 2013). The economic empowerment of
women is considered as a major sustainable development goal that shall be achieved to prevent
inequality and ensure that women have more scopes and opportunities to excel in their career and
remain ahead in their personal lives too.
