Recommended: Feminist movement in the twentieth century

There is a sudden need to join forces in order to promote the welfare and wellbeing of thousands of suffering women across the globe. In todays’ scenario, women are being subjected all sorts of abuse- mental, physical, sexual etc. This again, reemphasises on Feminism as a science and a tool in order to revive these women out of their shambles and empower them. Feminism has been misinterpreted or misunderstood in literature. It doesn’t talk about taking the rights from men and transferring it to women, but it only talks about providing equal rights to both men and women. In order to create an egalitarian society, feminism is very crucial and significant. In order to guesstimate the real stand of women in today’s world, it …show more content…

It is simply because of the fact that when one is well nourished, one becomes more productive. This leads to the question of the access of proper Healthcare to women across the globe. When e\women become healthier, they can rise above poverty. This will ensure a better social status, thus leading to peace and harmony in their lives. Thus, there is a global call for ensuring sustainable nutrition for young women. Data suggests that Healthcare and Nutrition varies from a nation to another nation. Women belonging to industrialized economies have made considerable progress in accessing healthcare for themselves and their families. Having said that, it is only fair to appreciate the UN Decade for Women for making a huge difference in putting women’s issues globally and helping in representation. Even the World Health Organisation has played a very significant role in ensuring that women enjoy a good health status in the society.

It also noted that, by fulfilling the Millennium Development Goals, steps should be taken in order to provide an opportunity for girls and women to learn. This is because of the fact that this will not only improve their own lives but will also create an impact on their families, the society and the economy as a whole. This can also be viewed as an important tool to fight poverty and hunger respectively. Data suggests that a woman is more likely to graduate and get a well-paying job after her basic education. Certain developing countries like Yemen, Nepal, and Bangladesh have seen rapid increases in growth due to the contributions made by their woman. Certain steps have been taken by the UNICEF in order to ensure this. The Back on Track Programme ensures that girl children get education even during crisis situations and also irrespective of their economic status. At this point, it is very important to note that these programmes and initiative alone cannot bring about a change. This is a result of strong economic and political will. The right and needs of women must be addressed in a way that quality education is being given at no cost. There is a need for bolder steps on all fronts in order to enrich the process of learning among

Honey Bees have been on planet Earth for more than 100 million years. Each year the bee population has grown and multiplied, until, recently. “In the last half decade alone 30% of the national bee population has disappeared and nearly a third of all bee colonies in the U.S. have perished.

Since, the eighteen century women have been seeing as property, object and goods (Popple, 2015, p.64).

In this article, we will be discussing how feminism is still needed as there is a lack of gender equality. Till this day there are still women that are not given the opportunity to be educated like men, females’ salaries are less than males’ salaries and women are treated as if their job is to serve men. Women and men should have equal rights because no one is more superior to the other gender. Sexism is still a struggle in our society that has to be tackled as it makes us as women feel unworthy and not capable of things that we can actually do. We are all human beings therefore we all have the same abilities as well as we all have goals we want to achieve but it is a struggle for women more than it is for men.

Increased malnutrition is caused by poor diversification of diets such as relying too much on starchy staples. Thus, the consumption of a variety of foods is important for positive health. Malnutrition can be reduced by the consumption of diets having animal sources, vitamin-rich fruits and vegetables as well as nutrient-rich legumes (Arimond and Ruel, 2004; Thompson and Amoroso, 2011). According to the FAO, IFAD and WFP, (2015) about 800 million people do not have sufficient access to calories. A low intake of vitamins and minerals causes about 2 billion people all over the world to suffer from micronutrient malnutrition (IFPRI, 2014).

In third world countries, girls are fighting their families, communities, and countries in order to go to school. Governments need to support these young women and fulfill their dreams. Not only will it empower women, but it will positively impact each family, community, and country. Firstly, the only way to decrease the educational gap between males and females is to implement policies that decrease or completely remove school fees for girls and prohibit families from removing their daughters from school before the age of 18. As a result, these nations will achieve gender equality as both females and males will be equally qualified for jobs.

There has been progress, today, more girls and women are literate than ever before, and in a third of developing countries, there are more girls in school than boys. Women now make up over 40 percent of the global labour force. In some areas, however, progress toward gender equality has been limited—even in developed countries. Girls and women who are poor, live in remote areas, are disabled, or belong to minority groups continue to lag behind. Too many girls and women are still dying in childhood and in the reproductive ages.
