Summary

Introduction

Women produce 41 percent of workers paid off-farm, compared to 35 percent in 1990. Giving women equal rights to economic resources such as land and property is a vital target for realizing sustainable development goals. There are more women entering public positions than ever before, and encouraging women leaders to help strengthen gender equality policies and laws (United Nations Development Programme, 2018). The development of civilization in Indonesia is currently growing in the scope of culture and practical ideology so that it has a negative impact on various aspects of life and community structure. The level of women's ability in all regions of Indonesia has not been reached, even women's empowerment is a measure of the success of programs that are quantitatively able to meet the expectations of the central government. Organizational progress managed by women will lead to an increase in business performance which impacts on the level of national economic growth and community welfare, especially women. National economic growth is indirectly strongly influenced by the development of globalization which causes changes in the mindset and order of people's lives from the era of tradition to the era of free and competitive competition
