EMPOWERING WOMEN THROUGH HANDICRAFTS AND HANDLOOMS A STUDY ON WOMEN OF JAMMU AND KASHMIR
Abstract
The handlooms sectors in Kashmir and Jammu have established schemes of rural crafts that tend to promote the empowerment of women which would help to eradicate the problems regarding the poverty of women. This study highlights the handlooms industry that is inheriting the employment prospects of the handloom sectors to potentially empower women which would help to increase the social condition of women. The handicraft industry is trying to improve the traditional culture of women by providing economic empowerment of women by engaging them in the production of handicrafts. The indigenous textile handlooms industry helps to render a great platform to help women to establish their cultural aspects and help to elevate their position in society. Women are the vulnerable section that requires the establishment of the identity of women. Gender equality is constantly being promoted by these handlooms business sectors that help to promote women's strength and entity. The most important aspect of these small-scale handloom industries is that they promote the development of women's role in the economic sector. This has led to the development of the condition regarding the social and political life of women. Equal opportunities are the only way that can empower women and this concept is being currently followed by the handloom industry. Empowerment would be attained if liberty should be provided to women to prove their skills in the working sector. This would not only turn the condition of the women into betterment but also improve their competitiveness attitude. This would thus help to bring accountability and financial reliability to the economic factor of women.
