Male Migration: A Challenge to the Status of Rural Women of Odisha

Migration is appositive phenomena and if regulated and managed properly can reap benefits for both the sending and receiving region. The concept of migration in India has been mostly in terms of rural to urban zone and its consequences have been perceived more from the urban end. Impact of migration, economic gains are minimal, there is little improvement in the economic status of both men & women. Besides, there is a reinforcement of traditional gender roles, & an increasing subordination of women. Lack of livelihood, non accessibility to governmental programs etc lead to survival migration. Migration entrenches restrictive gender stereo types of women’s dependency & lack of decision making powers. The gendered division of labour in destination results in women’s skills being underutilized or lead women into sex work. Health, education, & employment protection services are hard to obtain in the destination area particularly if the migration is illegal & informal.
