The Indian government, in its vision to make India a superpower, has realized the gap and is striving toward poverty alleviation through training programs, financial inclusion, strengthening of social services, and creating awareness of women’s rights. Ensuring women’s access to basic services, land control, property inheritance, and financial inclusion is the way forward to achieving the lofty goals of SDG1 and the reduction in poverty.
The way forward is to provide women with equal access to avenues for growth through social protection. The key to achieving SDG1 lies in realizing women’s rights.
