Decentralization as a Narrative of Opportunity for Women in Indonesia
**Abstract:**
*Decentralization as a Narrative of Opportunity for Women in Indonesia* explores how Indonesia’s decentralization policies have opened new spaces for women’s participation in politics, governance, and community development. The book examines both the opportunities and challenges women face in local decision-making processes, highlighting cases where decentralization has strengthened gender equality and women’s leadership at the regional level. It argues that while decentralization offers a framework for inclusion and empowerment, its success depends on institutional support, gender-sensitive policies, and continuous advocacy from civil society to ensure women’s voices are meaningfully represented in governance.
