Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 07
Abstract
The study focused on the impact of gender parity on achieving sustainable development vis-à -vis national integration in Nigeria. Consequently, the study examines those factors that propel symbiotic gender equality and sustainable development, towards national integration in Nigeria. The study further examined the apparent growing concern of gender inequality in the corridors of our socio-economic and political life as characterized in our workplace, politics and political appointments, school admissions, elective positions and job recruitment and placement, which directly or indirectly affects wealth creation, sustainable development and national cohesion in Nigeria. To investigate this, the study employed descriptive research design and deployed the PRISMA Model in the secondary sources of data collection, while content analysis was adopted for data analysis. The study was anchored on Julian Rappaport’s (1981) Empowerment Theory. Findings showed that 80% of women population according to 2006 census figure remains the hidden resources for national cohesion and sustainable development in Nigeria. The study strongly recommends for gender parity as the best option so that women as hidden resources could contribute their quota towards sustainable development.
