<![CDATA[This review article explores the pivotal role of education in women's development. Education has long been recognized as a crucial factor in promoting gender equality and empowering women worldwide. Through a comprehensive analysis of existing literature and empirical studies, this review highlights the multifaceted ways in which education contributes to women's development across various domains. Education enhances women's economic empowerment by equipping them with knowledge, skills, and qualifications that improve their employability and income-earning potential. It enables women to break free from the cycle of poverty, providing opportunities for economic independence and financial stability. Moreover, education fosters entrepreneurship, allowing women to create and manage businesses, thereby contributing to economic growth and societal development. Education plays a fundamental role in promoting women's health and well-being. Educated women tend to have better knowledge of healthcare practices, leading to improved maternal and child health outcomes. They are more likely to make informed decisions about reproductive health, family planning, and disease prevention. Education also acts as a protective factor against early marriage, adolescent pregnancy, and gender-based violence, positively impacting women's physical and mental health. Further education serves as a catalyst for women's social and political empowerment. It enhances women's confidence, critical thinking, and leadership skills, enabling them to actively participate in decision-making processes at individual, community, and national levels. Education cultivates a sense of agency among women, challenging traditional gender roles and norms, and promoting gender equality. Increased educational attainment among women is associated with greater gender equality in society, reduced discrimination, and increased political representation. Additionally, education contributes to the advancement of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, which have traditionally been male-dominated. By providing equal educational opportunities, breaking down gender stereotypes, and fostering supportive learning environments, education empowers women to pursue careers in STEM, driving innovation, and bridging the gender gap in these fields. This review underscores the indispensable role of education in women's development. It highlights the transformative power of education in promoting economic empowerment, improving health outcomes, fostering social and political participation, and advancing women in traditionally male-dominated domains. Recognizing and investing in women's education is crucial for achieving gender equality, sustainable development, and creating a more inclusive and equitable society]]>
