Abstract

The enactment of Law No. 6 of 2014 concerning Villages became a new spirit
for democracy in the village, which in article 58 paragraph 1 discussed the representation of
women in the Village Consultative. Women's participation in village development, especially
in the policy making process is still very low, where women are still stuck in private matters.
In this study using qualitative research, Data collection uses in-depth interviews,
uninvolved observation and documentation, and data analysis uses the Creswell data analysis
stage.
The results of this study indicate on the comparison of the roles of women BPD
members in village development in the villages of Gunung Tumpeng and Pillow Village,
shows that the difference in the number of women BPD members is also one of the factors
that is less than the maximum activeness of women BPD members in the village development
process, seen from Gunung Tumpeng Village where the majority of BPD members are male
men who make women BPD members less active.
The advice given is based on an explanation of the analysis of the role of women in
BPD in village development in the villages of Gunung Tumpeng and Bantal villages by
maximizing the participation of BPD Perempuan members, holding special hearings on
women's issues in the village because new ideas and mental courage in delivering suggestions
are needed. The role of BPD women members is not only related to empowerment, but also
physical development, and the protection of women and children so that there is no more
omission of acts of violence against women and children.
