KNOWLEDGE BASED SERVICES WITH INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES (ICT) SUPPORT-- A TOOL FOR WOMEN EMPOWERMENT

This paper highlights the importance of making women economically powerful, especially in the Indian context. In India the birth of a girl child is still considered as a misfortune for the family and often eliminated in her mother’s womb. This paper suggests that one solution to this problem is to make a girl child economically strong and at the same time her traditional role as a home maker is also not affected. Information and Communication Technology alongside a knowledge based service sector offers the empowerment tool that women require.
