Education is considered one of the most powerful tools for breaking the cycle of poverty and empowering individuals, particularly women, to achieve economic and social mobility. However, women from disadvantaged backgrounds face multiple barriers that hinder their access to education and limit their opportunities for upward mobility. This case study aims to explore the role of education in empowering disadvantaged women from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds, specifically examining how education can help break down barriers and create new opportunities for these women. This case study used a qualitative research approach, collecting data through in-depth unstructured interviews of two women from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds. The study’s findings focused on the hardships of those two women and how education played a crucial role in helping their children come out of financial miseries.
