Abstract
Women empowerment and community development go hand in hand as empowering women has a significant positive impact on the overall development of communities. This research project aims to explore the various dimensions of women empowerment and its direct correlation with community development. The study delves into the importance of providing women with equal opportunities in education, employment, and leadership roles to empower them economically, socially, and politically. Through a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods, data will be gathered to analyze the current status of women empowerment in different communities. The research will focus on understanding the challenges and barriers that women face in accessing education, healthcare, and economic resources. By identifying these obstacles, the study aims to propose strategies and interventions to promote women's empowerment and foster community development. The research will also investigate the role of cultural norms and societal expectations in shaping women's empowerment levels within communities. By examining the cultural factors that influence gender roles and attitudes towards women, the study seeks to address deep-rooted issues that hinder women's progress and limit their opportunities for advancement. Furthermore, the project will assess the impact of women's empowerment initiatives on community development indicators such as healthcare access, education levels, economic growth, and social cohesion. By analyzing existing data and conducting surveys and interviews with community members, the study aims to measure the effectiveness of empowerment programs and policies in bringing about positive changes at the grassroots level. Overall, this research project seeks to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on women empowerment and community development by providing insights into the interconnected nature of these two concepts. By highlighting the importance of empowering women as a catalyst for broader community development, the study aims to inform policymakers, organizations, and community leaders on effective strategies to promote gender equality and create more inclusive and prosperous societies.

Thesis Overview

Women empowerment is all encompassing, so this work will want to narrow it to the subject of women development and the impact of skill acquisition and economic empowerment. This topic has generated so much controversy in Nigeria, and the debate centers on appropriate type of development and whether the would help stimulate women toward their development. There is much ambivalence within every society as to the proper place of women in all the vital spheres of life. However, there seems to be a consensus that the future of women development is greatly enhanced with these two variables mentioned above. This study therefore examines the role of skill acquisition and economic empowerment on women development and how women have contributed in the development of their community. This will be done by defining each of the concepts involved, showing their specific relation and reaching a conclusion on the topic.

CHAPTER ONE
 

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The discriminatory practice in education which favored the male over the female was very unprogressive yet the government could not do anything to either stop or reverse it (Kema, 2003). The colonial government laid a very bad foundation for education generally and women‟s education in particular. It is on record that in Nigeria, the colonial government initially did not show any interest in educational development at all. The early efforts were made by the Christian missionaries who came to evangelize to the people.

In 1986, the federal ministry of education in Nigeria created a special unit, women‟s education unit. This showed that the government was beginning to respond to the urgent need for the development of women. This special right accorded to women in education suggests that apart from women benefitting from general education, there will be a measure of encouragement to them towards specialization in sciences, engineering, and technology. Another area were the federal government of Nigeria intensified effort to develop women‟s education was in the establishment of mass literacy commission. The effort of government has been complimented by the non-governmental.
