In Turkey, factors such as high inflation, de- creasing real income, economic crises, and earthquakes have contributed to an increase in poverty. Existing literature indicates that a significant portion of this increase affects women. Despite numerous studies on poverty and coping strategies, this research specifically focuses on women’s poverty. The aim of this study is to analyze master’s theses addressing women’s poverty in Turkey, examining various variables to identify research trends in this field. To achieve this, a document review was conducted, and 41 master’s theses published in the National Thesis Center of the Council of Higher Education were analyzed using a de- scriptive analysis method. The research findings indicate that women’s poverty is investigated in various universities, with the highest number of master’s theses published in 2022. The main causes of women’s pov- erty emerged as gender inequality, employment issues, lack of educa- tion, low wages, and social exclusion.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPovertyWomen’s PovertyAnti-Poverty StrategiesGender InequalityLack of EducationEXAMINING STUDIES ON WOMEN’S POVERTY WITH A FOCUS ON MASTER’S THESES IN TURKISH CONTEXTArticle202314634901248132
