It presents an in-depth analysis of the complex challenges women face in higher education participation and translating higher education opportunities into labour market success and to leadership positions, including in academia. It argues that despite a substantial progress towards gender equality in enrolment, these inequalities pose as barriers in realising the transformative role that higher education can have for women's wellbeing and for the nation's development. The volume looks at the issues that keep women from accessing the areas of their choice, and the challenges they face in leadership positions in higher education. An important critique of higher education policy and planning, the volume will be of interest to teachers, students, and researchers of education, public policy, political science and international relations, economics, feminism, women's studies, gender studies, law, and sociology. It will also be useful for academicians, policymakers, and anyone interested in the study of gender in Indian Higher Education"-- |
