South Asia The Open Road Through The Rise of Independent Travel For a women in South Asia
Economic Empowerment of Women: and for most of that time, to go out on the road by yourselfwas unheard of, if not completely frowned upon. Safety and social issues forced women to stay home, and even wealthier women were permitted to travel for short family visits or escorted picnics. But there’s something deep and fundamentally changing all across the subcontinent. At the same time, a revolution is taking place with more South Asian women moving beyond these historical limitations and experiencing the exhilaration of solo adventures. This is no mere fad. It’s a narrative of independence, self-discovery, and a new identity for what it means to be a woman in the 21st century.
