Abstract This paper explores the relationship between female labour force participation (FLFPR), adolescent fertility rates, and economic development in India from 2012 to 2022. Drawing on regression analysis and secondary data sources, including the World Bank and the International Labour Organisation, the study investigates the impact of FLFPR, normalised weight (FGERSE), and adolescent fertility rates on GDP per capita. Results indicate a strong positive correlation between FLFPR and GDP per capita, highlighting the significant role of women in driving economic growth. Conversely, adolescent fertility rates exhibit a negative correlation with GDP per capita, emphasising the need for policies to address reproductive health outcomes. The findings underscore the importance of promoting gender inclusivity education to foster sustainable economic development and gender equality in India.
