چکیده
هدف: هدف این پژوهش بررسی تأثیر احیای صنایع‌دستی بر توانمندسازی زنان روستایی در روستاهای هدف گردشگری منطقه الموت می‌باشد.
روش: این تحقیق از نظر هدف، کاربردی و از نظر روش، توصیفی و از لحاظ جمع‌آوری اطلاعات، کتابخانه‌ای و میدانی می‌باشد. جامعه آماری این پژوهش کلیه زنان روستایی فعال در حوزه صنایع دستی و حجم نمونه با روش نمونه‌گیری احتمالی به تعداد ۱۰۰ نفر برآورد شد. برای بررسی داده‌های پژوهش بعد از تحلیل توصیفی با استفاده از نرم‌افزار SPSS و PLS و با کمک معادلات ساختاری به بررسی فرضیات پرداخته شد.
یافته‌ها: نتایج نشان داد؛ توانمندسازی زنان روستایی در هر سه حوزه اقتصادی، اجتماعی و روانی در جهت احیای صنایع دستی تاثیر مستقیم و معنادار دارد. بیشترین تاثیر بعد روانی و کمترین تاثیر در بعد اقتصادی مشاهده گردید.
نتیجه‌گیری: با توجه به اینکه توانمندی سازی از جنبه روانی تاثیر بسزایی در احیای صنایع دستی زنان روستایی داشت، ضروری است که عواملی مانند نقش رهبری در خانواده، توانایی هدایت دیگران، خودمختاری، مشارکت در انجمن‌ها و تشکل‌های درآمدزا و مردم نهاد در نتیجه حل مشکلات خود، مورد بررسی و توجه قرارگیرد. همچنین ترویج توانمندسازی روانی و تشویق زنان روستایی از طریق برگزاری کلاس‌های آموزشی در خصوص مزایا و اهمیت کارآفرینی و فعالیت‌های اشتغال زنان با توجه به نیازهای محلی می‌تواند انگیزه زنان را برای ایجاد مشاغل جدید و ایجاد توانمندی‌های اقتصادی آنها افزایش دهد.

چکیده [English]
Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of revitalizing handicrafts on the empowerment of rural women in the tourism target villages of Alamut region.
Method: This research is applied in terms of purpose, descriptive in terms of method, and library and field in terms of data collection. The statistical population of this study is all rural women active in the field of handicrafts, and the sample size was estimated to be 100 people using the probability sampling method. To examine the research data, after descriptive analysis using SPSS and PLS software and with the help of structural equations, hypotheses were examined.
Findings: The results showed that; empowering rural women in all three economic, social, and psychological areas has a direct and significant effect on the revival of handicrafts. The greatest effect was observed in the psychological dimension and the least effect was observed in the economic dimension.
Conclusion: Given that empowerment from a psychological perspective had a significant impact on the revival of rural women's handicrafts, it is essential that factors such as the role of leadership in the family, the ability to guide others, autonomy, participation in income-generating associations and organizations and NGOs as a result of solving their problems be examined and considered. Also, promoting psychological empowerment and encouraging rural women through holding training classes on the benefits and importance of entrepreneurship and women's employment activities according to local needs can increase women's motivation to create new jobs and build their economic capabilities.
Empowerment and economic and social development of rural areas, including attention to the role of rural women, is one of the logical goals of most countries, including Iran. One of the key issues for women in developing countries is the empowerment of rural women and how to increase their empowerment and role in the development of rural areas. Attention to the role of women and gender discussions and identifying factors and drivers affecting women's empowerment in rural development contexts can have a significant impact on development processes and the adoption of relevant policies. Given the importance of this issue, this study examined the effect of revitalizing handicrafts on the empowerment of rural women in the tourism target villages of the Alamut region. Today, a significant part of the scientific workforce in our society is dedicated to women who have demonstrated technical and managerial abilities in the social, political and economic fields of the country and enjoy the necessary legal and institutional guarantees for participation. In the economic, social and cultural development of the country, it is necessary to systematically review the empowerment and employment of women while adopting strategic and operational policies and programs with a strategic approach.
The findings of this study showed that the majority of rural women in the study area have little access to factors and incentives to increase their empowerment, and rural women in the region do not have much ability to manage their lives and participate in livelihood activities. Various factors are involved in the empowerment of rural women in terms of revitalizing handicrafts, and this study has examined three economic, social, and psychological dimensions, considering the factors existing in the villages.
According to the findings of the study;
Regarding the first hypothesis, it can be said that among the dimensions affecting women's empowerment, the least amount of impact was related to the economic dimension, which concerns control over income, earning income, and obtaining material assets. In order to increase the empowerment of rural women in the study area and other rural areas of the country, it is necessary to pay sufficient attention to these factors. The results of this study in the area of economic dimension were in line with the research of Hermavati et al. (2023), Noor et al. (2021), Hashem et al. (2011). Hassanpour et al. (1400), Zamani Moghadam and Afshani (1400), Tarasi et al. (2010), Abolfathzadeh et al. (2016), Tanzil et al. (2023), Noor et al. (2021), Halley and Marsh (2021).
Regarding the second hypothesis, it can be said that the social empowerment of individuals in features such as social integration, social freedom, and social interaction was quite obvious and clear, and the factor of social integration had a higher priority in terms of recognizing women in the village for progress, which should be given special attention. The results of this study in the area of social dimension were in line with the research of Hermavati et al. (2023), Noor et al. (2021), Hashem et al. (2011). Rayisi et al. (1400), Hassanpour et al. (1400), Zamani Moghadam and Afshani (1400), Tarasi et al. (2010), Abolfathzadeh et al. (2016), Nasir et al. (2021).
Regarding the third hypothesis, it can also be said that the psychological empowerment of individuals represents important psychological characteristics such as a sense of cultural pride, intellectual independence, self-confidence, and increased awareness of women. The psychological dimension had the greatest impact on women's empowerment in the revival of handicrafts in the tourism target villages of the Alamut region compared to the other two dimensions. This means that rural women need to be believed by society more than anything else, because the more they are supported by society, the more they will realize their abilities and skills and, of course, their values, and as a result, it can also have a positive impact on the revival of handicrafts. The results of this study in the area of the psychological dimension were in line with the research of Hermavati et al. (2023), Noor et al. (2021), Hashem et al. (2011).
Future Suggestions
It is suggested that further studies and research be conducted in the field of examining local and regional factors influencing the empowerment of rural women.
Investigating the same issue at the national level with the aim of comparative analyses between different communities
It is recommended to conduct this issue in a qualitative manner, using interviews and other data collection techniques in addition to questionnaires.
Research Limitations
This research is limited in terms of access to research data due to the time of the research. Because it was conducted in the winter season and due to the cold weather and snow, it was almost impossible to reach more people in these areas.
This research was conducted solely on women in the tourism target villages of Alamut region of Qazvin province; therefore, generalizing the results to other communities should be done with caution.
