Abstract: The purpose of the study is to explore the changing role of gender in society and to focus on how Self-help groups (SHGs) empower women in rural Odisha. Women's empowerment through micro-enterprises helps overcome traditional cultural boundaries and foster economic independence. SHG's assistance in setting up micro-enterprises has had a positive impact on the social and economic condition of women in rural areas. This research examines the role of micro-enterprises for women in Odisha, with reference to family background, education, and family size. Descriptive statistical methods were used to interpret the results and identify reasons for joining micro-enterprises, using frequency distributions, percentages, means, and standard deviations. The results show that micro-enterprise programmes have had a strong impact on women's economic security and position. Economic independence is a key enabler of women's participation in household and community decision-making; however, empowerment requires a mindset shift. Education, resources, and policies are needed to support rural women in Odisha in their economic and social development. This paper highlights the importance of SHGs in women’s empowerment. It discusses the current state of women’s economic participation in India, underlining the need for continuous efforts in policymaking, education and financial inclusion.
Keywords: Financial Inclusion, Micro-enterprises, Sustainable Livelihood, Self-help groups (SHGs), Women Entrepreneurship.
