Beschreibung: Relevance. Ensuring equal access to resources is crucial for social development, especially in rural areas. Women in these regions face distinct challenges due to traditional lifestyles and cultural norms, impacting their access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. Addressing these challenges is vital for the overall development of rural communities. Research objective. This study aims to develop methodological approaches to assessing women's access to resources in rural areas of Kazakhstan. Data and methods. Based on the investigation of methodological approaches, multinomial logistic regression analysis was proposed to assess the impact of regional differences on gender gaps in access to various resources. The study is based on qualitative data collected from May to June 2023 from a sociological survey conducted among women aged 18-60 in rural settlements of Kazakhstan. A total of 600 respondents were interviewed, and 542 of the respondents had completed questionnaires. This methodology enables the collection, analysis, and processing of primary data, aiding in the assessment of gender disparities in resource access. Results. The proposed methodology facilitated a thorough analysis of qualitative data, offering insights into the problem of gender disparities. Most respondents rated their access to social and economic resources as average, suggesting that while there are available resources, they might not fully meet rural women's needs or expectations in terms of level or quality. Conclusions. Regions like Akmola, Atyrau, Mangystau, North Kazakhstan, Turkestan, and Zhambyl show significant disparities in resource access, indicating regional inequalities. Addressing this gap necessitates collaborative efforts between government and businesses to enhance resource availability and broaden opportunities for rural women.
