Is There Need for Integrating Feminist Moral Framework in Nigerian Educational Policy

This paper highlights non-integration of feminist moral framework in Nigerian educational policy and non-integration is not a significant barrier to achieving gender equality in education. It explores that, the non-integration will not bring negative consequences in the societal inequities. Since women in Nigeria are allowed to attend schools at any level and having education will give women courage to protest/fight for any kind of opportunities to empower women. It further explains that our schools already have feminist moral concern on gender discrimination and other gender related abuses, thereby most of the abuses and discriminations against women are tackle by the institutions in Nigeria. While integrating the feminist values into the educational policy would be duplication of women values as the school's curriculum and methodologies are more inclusive to carter not only women but even people with disabilities. Therefore allowing women to have full access to education would enable them to fight for their rights at any levels or situations, and that may fast track the realization of national and international gender related Initiatives.
