Abstract

A developed nation is one whose Natives whether males or females are educated. Education is a basic necessity to survive in this ever-competitive world. It is the backbone of every economy. The fact that excellence in education is now one of the  17 sustainable development goals under the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable  Development, which was adopted by the UN General Assembly, is another indication  of the importance of education. High-quality education is now the agenda’s fourth  goal. Beginning in 2016, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their  fourth goal—Quality Education—were implemented. In addition to discussing  education, the fourth goal places a strong emphasis on its calibre. The fourth goal  talks not only about education but also emphasizes its quality. It provides an inclusive  and egalitarian education and encourages possibilities for lifelong learning.  This  is a descriptive research paper. The data used for this paper is secondary. All the data for this paper has been collected through the Internet. The objective of this  study is to discuss the need for Female Education as a necessary path to achieve  Gender Parity for SDG and steps to be taken to meet these challenges and to  achieve the goals.
