The impact of education on the socioeconomic and psychological status of tribal girls A case study

Self-esteem isn't everything; it's just that there's nothing without it. The victory of women, organized and unorganized, to be able to command their space by the virtue of their decision-making power over the body, career, relations and life has been exhausting in history. The claim of their due has been achieved primarily through access to Education as the starting point. Education is the bedrock of the country's progress, cornerstone of development and the most potential tool to overcome poverty and deprivation because it empowers the other, so called better half of the population that has been systematically languishing in the shackles of well-oiled patriarchy. Girls 'education is a strategic development priority as it equips girls to be better suited to the needs of the dynamic world. India has always rolled out ambitious plans to achieve ever elusive cent percent enrolment with a dedicated focus on girl child education and empowerment. Much still is left to be done as millions of girls and women at the margins still face grave discrimination while many women have broken stereotypes and made a niche for themselves in the male dominated world.
