| Summary: | There has been a growing awareness of the dignity and role of women all over the world since the 1980s.

As Pope John XXIII rightly remarks in his encyclical, "Since women are becoming ever more conscious of their human dignity, they will not tolerate being treated as mere material instruments, but demand rights befitting a human person both in domestic and in public life." |
