Abstract: Abstract The role of education in general is to provide individuals with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to live productive and fulfilling lives. Education helps in the development of critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills; fosters creativity and curiosity; and instills values such as responsibility, civic engagement, and respect for diversity. Education plays a critical role in personal and societal development. Women have historically faced barriers in accessing education, but in recent decades, there have been significant improvements in increasing educational opportunities for girls and women. The transport and logistics industry has traditionally been male-dominated, and as a result, there is a lack of women in leadership and management positions. However, there have been some recent efforts to address this imbalance and promote gender diversity in the industry.
