Title Scientist of International Repute
Empowerment of Women, a Kerala Perspective
 
Creator Edison, Shoji Joy
 
Description There is a general assumption that female empowerment leads to better harmony
with nature, and to a gentler, kinder world. Are Kerala women paying any attention
to their environment? I return to the idea that an enlightened female population can
be a powerful voice for change. It is not apparent that the women of Kerala are using
their enlightened status to take better care of their land, their oceans or the air they
breathe. Let us hope that the empowerment enjoyed by the women of Kerala will not
stop at personal freedoms, but that they will step up soon to take their share of our
collective responsibilities towards our environment.
