The research has a documentary design, for the collection of information a brainstorming session was carried out, the topic was chosen, the documents were searched in Google academic articles, Mendeley was used as a database and the most important data related to the topic were analyzed. The results show that women have increased their level of education, which allows them to have access to a better job and therefore obtain more income in the economic aspect, in the financial aspect, women have greater access to credit to be able to undertake, although this is of a minimum value and in the short term, the aim is to increase the credit capacity of women and increase it to a longer term and at a lower interest rate, within society there are still problems in terms of respecting women's rights, macho men who consider women to be inferior still do not respect them and assault them, even so the struggle continues and the strength of women to increase their participation and make their voices heard continues.
