Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to examine the internal and external

factors hindering the active participation of women in sustainable development

in general and the case of the Association of Women for Social Work

(AWCSW) in Palestine in particular, with a view to identifying Participatory

Adult Education approaches that could enhance their participation..

The study could help us to deepen our understanding of leadership problems

in Palestine and to examine the ways of enhancing the empowerment

of female leaders.

The significance of this study is manifold. It will serve as a resource material

for local organizations. It will also identify methods of adult education

that these organizations could use to empower women and enhance their

role as agents of social change. This study might be informative and initiate

some ideas that might educate women in socio-economic development.
