Abstract

This research aimed to provide a thorough overview of the systematic literature review about the challenges to women's empowerment in Ethiopia. The primary goal of this comprehensive overview of the literature article was providing an outline of the state of this field's research and knowledge while also addressing the difficulties associated with women's empowerment, particularly in Ethiopia. The investigator reviewed articles that were published from 2007 to 2024. The researcher carried out six tasks in order to direct the review. The researcher kept nine of the twelve publications that were carefully examined. The contribution of earlier studies on the difficulties in empowering women has looked at the specific regions in the title. Crucial research findings cannot be disregarded in the absence of a thorough understanding of the systematic review of earlier studies. Gaining insight into the planning and execution of studies on the difficulties in empowerment of women would facilitate understanding conditions on the field as it stands today. The results of this thorough evaluation of the literature point to a bright future for the consequences of the difficulties associated with women's empowerment. This extensive review of literature is expected to shed light on issues in relation with women empowerment and provide solutions. The results of this study will be used to resolve the concerns related to women's empowerment.
