Look beyond the boundaries: Revisiting the life of women in migration through the life of Ruth (a migrant)

SUMMARY

Women plays an important role in the development and progress of society. Women develop families, families construct homes, homes become societies, and societies eventually form nations. Female migrants have increased in number in recent years, travelling on their own for career, education, and to take on the role of head of home. Despite these gains, female migrants may continue to endure more prejudice, are more prone to abuse, and may face double discrimination as migrants and as women in their home country. This research is primarily concerned with the situation of women during migration. It demonstrates, in particular, that the influences of gender, race and ethnic origin, social class, cohort, marriage, and history should be clearly studied, as women migrants' migration and labour market experiences are markedly different from men's. The research also highlights the life of Ruth, a character from the holy Bible which falls under the category of classical diaspora. The research also discussed the issues and reasons for women migration. Research on women migrants and their work experiences is increasing as a result of the rising engagement in various migration systems by women. The research also talks about the importance of life skills and demonstrate it using the life of Ruth. It opens with a discussion of the many sorts of migration systems and emphasises the critical need of defining migration systems when considering female migrants. The paper concludes with a discussion even in all odds of life can have happy and blissful living.
