Abstract: Abstract Achieving gender equality is the fifth goal of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To see the development of gender quality and support the fifth goal of the SDGs, The Central Bureau of Statistics assesses the development of the gender dimension as stated in the Gender Development Index (GDI) and the Gender Empowerment Index (GEM). The percentage of women’s contribution to employment income, women’s representation in parliament, and women’s participation in decision-making through the indicators of women as managerial, professional, administrative, and technical personnel are the three indicators used by the GEM. This study pays attention to the influence of politics, professional staff, economy, income, gender empowerment index, and gender development index on economic growth in West Nusa Tenggara during the 2018–2021 period using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression analysis. Based on the research, the variables of women’s involvement in parliament, professional decision-making, and the contribution of women’s income negatively influence economic growth. Meanwhile, income, gender development index, and gender empowerment index positively affect economic growth.
