EMPOWERING INDIGENOUS WOMEN

Empowerment of women is of utmost importance to remove poverty, and financial independence as well as fight against gender based violence. Many women especially in Peru live in poverty, hunger and die without having basic necessities of life.

Some women face domestic violence and commit suicide. There is a need for women rights and equality all over the world. Women should be encouraged to study and take part in every field where there is presence of men so that they feel confidence in themselves and stand for their own rights as a human being. There is a lack of medical facilities for indigenous women and they suffer a lot.

Various seminars should be conducted to make women know their rights and speak without hesitation and live in freedom.
