Abstract: With growing concern for environment World is promoting Green Economy to ensure sustainable development which can perceive growth along with protecting our mother nature. Moreover, growth inclusive of women players is also getting importance as a strategy for development in recent years. Women are engaged in various activities from working to fulfill basic necessities to leading social developments since decades. Green economy provides opportunities for women to engage in better job and attain higher social standards. But, it also possesses a threat of losing potential benefits and raising gender inequality at the early stage of growth which can be seen particularly in developing countries. However, women can play a vital role in achieving the targets of green economy.
