Abstract: Bangladesh gained independence on 16 December 1971. Since independence till date, the government has taken various steps to empower women. Despite all these efforts, the economic structure of women’s decision-making process has not yielded the desired results. The main reason is that women’s decisions are not valued in any family, social, political, or economic field. In the present study, we have analyzed the socio-economic status of women and their empowerment in decision-making. In doing so, we look at women’s age, religion, education, occupation, marital status, family status, maintenance, household expenses, adoption, children’s education, property rights, property buying and selling, house building, housework, and health and nutrition.
