Abstract:
Despite strides in literacy rates, West Bengal grapples with a persistent gender gap in education. This paper explores the multifaceted challenges hindering womenâ€™s educational attainment in the state, such as poverty, socio-cultural attitudes, and safety concerns. It further examines initiatives undertaken by the government and NGOs, including scholarship programs, girlsâ€™ hostels, and awareness campaigns. By critically analyzing these initiatives, the paper aims to assess their effectiveness and suggest areas for improvement to achieve gender parity in education. This research contributes valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and social workers working towards this goal.
