Abstract

This study was carried out on philosophical appraisal of women empowerment. Women empowerment is human right that lies at the heart of development and achievement of millennium development goals. The research adopted a cross-sectional survey design.  The study was carried out in Nsukka in Nsukka Local Government Area of Enugu State.  The population of the study comprised of adult males and females in Nsukka from the age of 18 and above. Multi stage sampling technique was used to select the sample. These include cluster sampling, simple random sampling, and availability sampling. Purposive sampling was also used in the sampling procedure. The copies of the questionnaire were administered to 510 women aged 18 and above in the three autonomous communities surveyed. The In-depth Interview guide was used to obtain data from the purposively selected 15 men and 15 women who are opinion leaders, women leaders, and the significant others in the three autonomous communities. The findings show that the higher the income level of women the higher their participation in development processes. There is also an indication that women’s participation in development processes is still generally low. This low participation according to the findings of the study is attributed to reproductive and domestic roles of women, discriminatory attitude of males, lack of group coalition among women, poor economic base of women, and illiteracy among women.
