<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the role of gender equality on poverty levels in Aceh Province during the 2018–2023 period. Gender equality is measured through three main indicators, namely the Gender Development Index (GDI), women's income contribution to household income, and women's Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR). The method used in this study is panel data regression with the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) approach. The results of the analysis show that the GDI has a negative and significant effect on poverty, which means that increasing gender equality contributes to reducing poverty levels. Women's income contributions also show a negative and significant effect, indicating that the greater the economic contribution of women, the lower the poverty level. Conversely, women's LFPR does not show a significant effect on poverty in Aceh. These findings indicate that the quality of women's participation in development is more important than the quantity of participation. Therefore, policies are needed to support improving the quality of women's resources and expanding their access to the economic sector as part of the poverty alleviation strategy in Aceh Province.]]>
