Women education


International Human Rights Instruments are not to be ratified only; they are to be practiced too. Until they are practiced, the status of women will not be strong. Though Nepal has ratified several International Human Rights Instruments regarding discrimination against women as a law of the country, more than 50% of heads i.e. women, in Nepalese societies are deprived of equal opportunities in attaining education in the name of female. From family to school and university level education, women are in pity situation and are being discriminated by men. Men just in the name of male are playing dominant role in the family to society. Everywhere the discrimination in the roles constructed and assigned by the society for men and women over a long period of time are becoming great obstacles for women in attaining education and achieving the opportunities competing with men. Women are not in the situation of equally competing with men in accomplishing the opportunities. It can be suggested that Nepal has to strictly implement and practice all the articles of conventions and conferences regarding discrimination against women in education that have been ratified too. Until and unless women are educated never can compete with men and until both men and women are made equal in all aspects no sustainable development in the country can be dreamt up.
