This study aims to analyze women empowerment through Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) using the learning by doing approach in Imbanagara Village, Ciamis Regency. Women empowerment is a strategic effort to improve family welfare and encourage women's active participation in productive economic activities, particularly in home-based industries. The research employs a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation with MSME actors and Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) managers. The findings indicate that the learning by doing model effectively enhances the skills, confidence, and business management capabilities of women engaged in MSMEs. Support from BUMDes, in the form of training, mentoring, and access to capital, significantly contributes to the success of women-led businesses. The integration of technology in product marketing has also been initiated, though it still requires further enhancement. This study concludes that women empowerment through MSMEs not only improves family income but also creates new job opportunities for the surrounding community. Therefore, further technological assistance and access to capital are necessary to ensure the program’s sustainability and optimal impact
