Mobile-Apps Gender Equality Prototype to Improve Women’s Soft Skills

The high level of gender inequality in the world of work poses serious challenges, especially regarding participation and career development between men and women. Data shows the comparison of the Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) between women and men in Indonesia. One of the factors causing the low level of labor force participation rate (LFPR)." for women in Indonesia is the existence of cultural norms that are still strong in most societies. By considering obstacles such as the low level of education among women, it is clear the impact that arises from gender inequality in the structure of society. As a result, women often experience limitations in accessing training and skills development, making it difficult for them to compete equally in the world of work. Awareness of the importance of transformational initiatives in changing the gender equality paradigm in the world of work is the key to producing a positive impact. By empowering women, a positive potential is opened that not only advances women individually but also makes a significant contribution to overall economic and social progress. Through understanding that transformational initiatives and skills can strengthen gender equality in the world of work, it is also necessary to emphasize the role of technology as a catalyst in achieving this goal. Increased use of technology has been key in providing solutions to gender equality challenges across various levels of Society.
