Women, Community Education and Rural Transformation in Nigeria: A Synergy

Résumé

Women have always been relevant in any development process either at home or in their various communities. They are the key actors in bringing about real changes positively given their population statistics and their active roles in the community. They are often at the grassroots level and are seen to be important in decision making processes though in most cases this is not acknowledged or appreciated given the patriarchal nature of the communities and also at higher levels of human socialisation. This paper seeks to bring to discourse the crucial importance of women and how the transformation process of their communities may not be worthwhile if they are not actively involved. The popular notion that if you train a woman you train a community is the underlying factor guiding this paper. The paper is also premised on the fact that if women are giving the right atmosphere and environment to operate then, a strong synergy is expected to bring about positive rural transformation for the betterment of all the stakeholders. Keywords : Women, Community Education, Rural transformation DOI: 10.7176/JEP/12-25-05 Publication date: September 30 th 2021
