Book Description
Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, , language: English, abstract: Rural women make up about half of the world's population and in land production have a strong diet and make up the majority of agricultural workers. They make up 50% of the workforce and participate in the production of half the food in the agricultural sector. For example, rural women make up about 70 to 80% of agricultural workers in sub-Saharan Africa, 65% in Asia, 45% in Latin American and Caribbean, 80% in Nigeria and Tunisia and 80% in India, but their role is in the production system it is a man’s role to add and this creates a huge burden within the mother and wife’s activities and takes a lot of time and energy for them. Research in this field shows that women spend about two thirds of their time in the production, management, and management of their homes, while men spend about a third of their time doing such things. A housewife helps to set up a farm, then ploughs, harvests, weeds and plants, milks and weaves, weaves carpets, tries to make tools and crafts, bakes bread, cooks, does housekeeping, fetches water from wells and far away, fetches firewood, cares for children, weaves wool and makes curd, butter milk, yoghurt, butter and oil. On top of all this, she is the manager of mom and family too. Although women are at home in developing countries producing about 80% of the food and have a responsibility to look after about 30% of rural households, their jobs are not considered economic activity and are simply removed from agricultural and rural development programs.

Book Description
Micro-credit has been taken as a prominent tool for poverty alleviation and women's empowerment. This book has presented the double-edged claim of microcredit proponents that microcredit not only supports rural poor to come out of poverty, it also empowers poor rural women in particular. This book is mainly grounded on research based on Bandipur Rural Municipality of Nepal. It has made the study of women from 3 settlements of Bandipur, who had availed microcredit facilities from some microcredit providing institutions or organizations in Bandipur. The data has been analyzed through qualitative data analysis under which both descriptive and explanatory methods. The data analysis is made on the basis of caste/ethnic group. The results showed that most of the females who availed the facility of microcredit finally got socioeconomic empowerment through acquiring the access to capital, control over resources, self-esteem, confidence level, decision making power, etc. Results are varied on Dalit, Janajati and Brahmin/Chhetri women. The findings showed that microcredit has significant impact on the upliftment of socio-economic empowerment of the borrowers of Bandipur. The income pattern of the respondent women has been changed. Daily wage earning and agricultural production were the main source of income before joining the program but after joining the microcredit program the sources of income shifted to small scale business, sale of livestock product and agricultural product. Entrepreneurship in microcredit beneficiary women has been increased. Apart from the changing income pattern, role of women in decision making about the resources mobilization for household activities, participation in societal affairs has also been increased. The economic dependency had restricted women in decision making power in all the spheres not only economical but also in other family and social affairs. But it has been changed now. Since, women are capable to generate regular income from their small enterprises; their dependency on male for money is reduced. Women's confidence and social status has increased after involvement in MC programs. Microcredit, though an effective poverty alleviating instrument, is not suitable for all categories of the poor. For those trapped in chronic poverty, no assets base to protect themselves from the countless webs of shocks, microcredit can be ineffective and sometimes counterproductive. Some cases of Dalit settlement have proved it.

Book Description
Using a case study of Bangladesh, and based on a long term participatory observation method, this book investigates claims of the success of microcredit, as well as the critiques of it, in the context of women’s empowerment. It confronts the distinction between women’s increasing wealth as a consequence of the success of microcredit programmes and their apparent non-commensurate empowerment, looking at two organisations (the Grameen Bank and the Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee) as they operate in two localities in rural Bangladesh, in order to discover how enrichment and empowerment are often confused. The book goes on to establish that the well-publicised success stories of the microcredit programme are blown out of proportion, and that the dynamics of collective responsibility for repayment of loans by a group of women borrowers – usually seen to be a tool for the success of microcredit – is in fact no less repressive than traditional debt collectors. This book makes a contribution to development debates; challenging adherents to more closely specify those conditions under which microcredit does indeed have validity, as well as providing insights relevant to South Asian Studies and Development Studies.

Book Description
Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Economic and Social History, grade: Commended, Bharathiar University (Tamil Nadu Institute of Urban Studies), course: PH.D, language: English, abstract: It is understood that two-third of world’s adult illiterates are women and seventy per cent of world’s poor are women and Women’s participation in a nation’s development is not merely a question of providing some special concessions to them but goes ahead only in empowering them in the process of development. In order to face and overcome the above crisis, this thesis enunciates empowerment for urban poor involving women, children, destitute, and suggesting schemes for gainful and productive employment for all those who seek it. This study has been made to address multiple deprivations of the urban poor through universalize the coverage and access to civic services and livelihood development opportunities. A nation’s economic health can be judged by the wellbeing of its people. The main role of a government of a country is to reduce its poverty rate. It introduces many welfare schemes for the upliftment of its people. Women have harder daily lives when compared with men. They have to perform plenty of tasks on a regular basis to help their family and their livelihood. The upliftment of the life of women is hence an important task for the government.
