If women had equal rights, it would be expanding women’s opportunities in public works, agriculture, finance, and other sectors that accelerates economic growth, helping their country. Also when girls are kept in school, to be educated, they aren’t getting married or having children. The more girls having children, the more the population grows. There country might not be able to support a large population. Also women in developing countries are 300 time more likely to die during childbirth.
