Keywords:

Women's social problems have been a persistent concern globally, with issues such as gender-based violence, unequal pay, and limited access to education and healthcare plaguing communities worldwide. For far too long, women have been marginalized, oppressed, and excluded from decision-making processes, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation and discrimination. However, in recent years, there has been a surge in women's activism, with women from diverse backgrounds and demographics taking a stand against these injustices and demanding change. This article argues that increasing women's activism is essential in solving women's social problems, as it empowers women to take control of their lives, challenges patriarchal norms, and fosters a more inclusive and equitable society.
