This study investigated the role of financial literacy in the relationship between women’s empowerment and green microfinance. We set a conceptual model with green microfinance as an outcome variable, financial literacy as a mediating variable, and women’s empowerment as an exposure variable. Variance-based SEM was employed for analysis. The results show that the exposure and mediating variables have a significant direct and indirect impact on the outcome variable. The relationship between women’s empowerment and green microfinance is partially mediated by financial literacy. Local wisdom-based financial literacy is found to be an alternative for mainstreaming women’s empowerment in local development. In addition, gender-targeted programs need to consider pro-literacy policies for achieving green microfinance sustainability. By using financial literacy as a mediating variable, this study contributes to the current literature on the relationship between women’s empowerment and green microfinance.

“…The inherent character in a person will ultimately differentiate the ways of leading men and women in educational institutions. Not always women tend to have a transformational leadership style, and men have a transactional leadership style; a person can have a combination of the two types of leadership styles as a result of the culture, habits and values instilled by parents (Barrios, Prowse & Vargas, 2020). So that the combination of characters that exist in a person will ultimately complement each other in exercising good control of school management as is found in school management.…”

Women’s representation in leadership positions is still low because there is still an opinion that women are not worthy of being leaders and only men are worthy of being leaders. This condition proves women’s low participation in leadership roles because the patriarchal culture still strongly influences people’s perspective. This paper aims to describe the roles and positions of women in school management. The research data are in the form of observations and interviews with female school principals and four male vice principals. The qualitative method with a gender perspective is used to identify women’s leadership style in Elementary School 002, Muara Badak District. The results showed that the principal in Muara Badak District prefers masculine characters and maintains a feminine character. It has an impact on assertiveness in controlling the school management process. Second, in carrying out school management functions, the principal’s leadership style applies a democratic leadership style. As a leader, participation seeks to provide trust and establish good communication by prioritising teamwork in decision-making. Keywords: Women’s leadership, school management, gender perspective.

The design of the study comprises of survey of literature, data elicitation and analysis. The study uses grey incidence analysis model (usually known as Grey Relational Analysis or simply GRA). The model has been applied on the secondary data extracted from the website of World Development Indicators (WDI). The countries included in the analysis have been selected on the basis of availability of data. From the result of GRA it can be learnt that thirty-six countries of the world are classified into seven different categories. There are five countries (namely Estonia, Hungary, Slovak Republic, Thailand and Ecuador) categorized as countries having exceptionally high women development, whereas, five countries under each next ensign (very high, high, moderate, low and very low). There are six countries (namely Tanzania, Madagascar, Cote d'Ivoire, Pakistan, Nigeria and Afghanistan) categorized under the ensign of exceptionally low. Pakistan fall under the ensign of exceptionally low. This study is designed on an original country level data extracted from very reliable source and the results of the study are useful for regulators, researchers, NGOs and other stakeholders of the phenomenon by way of providing deeper and new information.
