Abstract
Women's economic empowerment through financial literacy has emerged as a critical development priority globally. Despite significant advances in women's access to financial services, substantial gaps remain in financial knowledge, capabilities, and confidence. This project proposes a structured project management framework for planning, implementing, and evaluating women's financial empowerment initiatives, linking accounting fundamentals with PMP-level project planning methodologies. The framework integrates evidence-based practices from related research literature, emphasizing gender-responsive project management, participatory co-design, sustained mentoring, and measurable financial maturity indicators. By applying systematic project management principles, this approach ensures structured implementation, measurable outcomes, stakeholder accountability, and sustainable impact beyond the project lifecycle.
