Abstract: Gender is a common term whereas gender discrimination is meant only for women, because females are the only victims of gender discrimination. Recognizing women’s right and believing their ability are essential for women’s empowerment and development. Gender Stereotype is a long-term problem in our society and females are discriminated various ways in India, although legally women have equal rights. So, there is a great need to focus the society on gender issues so that there would be no discrimination based on gender. Women empowerment through gender stereotypes is one of the key factors to unlock the potential of women. This paper elaborates strategies that should be adopted in our society to promote gender equality. As we know “Power of women as the greatest potential for the growth of the economy†. To achieve the empowerment of all women and girls will establish policies and institutions to build a society where men and women support each other. Many activities need to focus where we lack gender responsive indicators and sex disaggregated baseline data and having limited monitoring information. There should be study on some constraints to assess possible differences in participation, benefits and impact between men and women. Gender development or sustainable inclusive development is one the prominent phenomenon which has emerged after the publication of Human Development Report.
