International Conference on Research avenues in Social Science

The basic right of women to self- determination and self-fulfillment including access to choices and the power to choose their own lives and roles gained momentum by the end of 19th century. As a part of process of empowerment, we need to reaffirm and clarify our understanding of feminism. Feminism begins with the situation of women and analyses the way that women’s situation has been shaped by and in turn shapes the whole social world. National economics have been more liberal that they have permitted free flow of capital and knowledge among countries in the event of LPG era. The involvement of women in the global village is very much realized in the field of Technology, Journalism Publishing and Mass Media. The mass media and Technology are an important link to promote aspirations and progressive change in women’s status in a global environment. The scope of the media to support women’s progress and project women achievers as role models in yet to be tapped fully. Our honourable president Pradeepa patel and the speaker Meira Kumar, a wide number of women ministers and Kiran Beadi, Kalpana Shawla, Sumitha Williams, Lathiga Saran are the best role models in the present era in our country. Women are still in the process of gaining education and health, better employment opportunities and becoming active participants in social change. The exposure to mass media & Technology encourages women to come out of powerless and exploitative to an eco-friendly environment.
