For every society, education is the basic need. It is a major factor in the development of persons, societies and countries. Education is also developing knowledge, skills, productivity and empowering the less fortunate. Women are the less fortunate human being in the society and supressed as well. That’s why a framework for promoting sustainable development in all dimensions, the UN SDGs set out in 2015 represent a roadmap to achieve some objectives. Quality education is the vital part of it. Education as a means of empowerment of women can bring about a positive attitudinal change (Bhat, 2015). This paper explores the role of education in promoting the sustainable development of women, focusing on challenges and opportunities. This study is based on secondary data collected from books, Government publications and open- source data base. Descriptive and exploratory methodology has been used for this study.
