Women of Education: What do they have in Common?

Abstract

In making a better-balanced society women play a crucial role from the earlier period of history and educating women can be considered as the most reliable way for improving their entire standard of living. Even the all-round development of a child mostly depends on women because women have a significant contribution in the development of their families as well as the entire society. Equalising women right in society is a very important concern for the development of a country. Gender equality can be considered as a global priority treated by UNESCO also. Women of education have treated education as the most authentic and reliable tool for the overall development of women. The present paper highlights the women of education in special reference to the legendary names Maria Montessori and Mary Wollstonecraft.
