Awakening of Women at the Village Level.

In the 1970s, it was impossible to carry out the Saemaul Movement without the participation of women. As in the examples of the Grameen Bank or self-help groups in India and Myanmar, women are very active in movements to fight against poverty. Women, who usually manage household finances, are very active in movements for the prevention of gambling and drinking and in income-generating businesses. In 1970s Korea, women also participated more actively than men.
