Overview

Qualitative analysis reveals women stakeholders' experiences in governance contexts, indicating empowerment and systemic barriers.

Key Points

  • Women in school governance reported feelings of empowerment, even amidst systemic barriers and challenges.
  • High illiteracy rates contributed to exclusion and tokenism in school governing bodies, limiting women's effectiveness.
  • Low levels of training opportunities for female stakeholders hinder their full participation in educational governance.
  • Significant contributions from women to school improvement demonstrate the need for policies that recognize their roles.
