The issue of sustainable development is considered a sensitive topic, particularly in light of the transformations occurring across political, economic, cultural, social, and technological fields. This has made attention to human resources today as a strategic force for the advancement and progress of nations through the utilisation and development of various means and skills, as well as the provision of favourable conditions to that end. Women are regarded as active elements in society, not only because they are responsible for shaping future generations but also because of their evident contribution to sustainable development in various forms. This is most often referred to as women's empowerment. This paper highlights the significance of women in sustainable development between empowerment and positive discrimination, with the aim of identifying alternatives and solutions to strengthen their role while clarifying the main challenges that hinder it.
