Abstract: This study explores the complex disparities in perceptions of the transforming function of education in women’s social empowerment between male and female respondents, as well as between households that are below the poverty line (BPL) and those that are above it. Understanding that gender and socioeconomic status have a big impact on how people perceive things, this study aims to highlight the various perspectives that affect how education is viewed as a means of empowerment. In order to inform the development of more inclusive and focused educational policies, the study intends to investigate these attitudinal variances. The results not only shed light on the socio-cultural factors at work, but they also open the door for tactics that remove obstacles to women’s empowerment. Ultimately, this study establishes the foundation for advancing gender equality and societal development via education, spurring more deliberate and significant efforts.
