Empowering invisible women: The entrepreneurship opportunities of Indonesian post-migrant workers

Galuh Octania Permatasari - Nama Orang;

Women represent more than half of Indonesia’s total migration. For many of them, going abroad to support the financial needs of their families has become a practical choice. They mostly come from rural areas and work as domestic workers, which are frequently prone to mistreatment and discrimination. Efforts to protect migrant workers should continue as international migration also significantly impacts individuals and the Indonesian economy. Bank Indonesia revealed that Indonesian migrant workers remitted more than IDR 160 trillion in 2019, equivalent to 1% of Indonesia’s total GDP. More importantly, migrant women are also vital to realizing SDG 5 on achieving women’s equality and empowerment. Migration can provide these women a key source of income and earn them greater autonomy and self-confidence. There were many successful experiences from former migrant women who brought enormous benefits to their families and villages upon returning to Indonesia. The overseas experiences have expanded their knowledge and skills in numerous aspects, empowering them to start small businesses and become entrepreneurs.

In reflecting on such realities and hopes, this paper will primarily analyze the reasons behind women’s migration and the role of the government in protecting them. The stories of migrant women, who by working abroad were able to advance themselves economically, socially, and professionally, will be discussed as well. Besides that, this paper will also showcase how Indonesian diplomacy can pave the way for more post- migrant workers to start rural enterprises to contribute towards achieving related SDG goals.
