Female Economic Empowerment: A Rights-Based Approach
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Annika Mulaney’s capstone project examined the economic barriers to labor participation among women in India, and how this in turn affects women’s labor supply, gender inequalities in the workforce, and policies that promote women’s participation and equal rights in the workforce. Through her capstone project, Annika also analyzed how a human rights framework can be applied to economic policy to better assess quality and distribution of growth, especially in developing countries. She hopes this project will also contribute to a necessary conversation about patriarchal values, gender roles in various communities, and women’s economic empowerment.
