Abstract

The social structure in society affects the division of groups in certain positions or classes. This study tries to see how social structure affects the placement of women's groups in social culture. The purpose of this study is to examine the efforts made by women's groups in Bangka Belitung both in real and virtual spaces. Further, this research is conducted to analyze the construction of society on the characteristics of the role of women in public spaces. The focus of the study is more on the activities of women's organizations and their activities or work programs that are carried out especially at the provincial level. This research is descriptive qualitative. The results of the study showed that the majority of formal legal women's organizations did not meet the requirements as formal forms of organization. The existing conditions are only in the form of informal groups. In fact, this condition does not show a significant impact on the competence of women's groups in the public sphere. The existence of these groups tends to strengthen the roles of women in the domestic sphere. There is only a physical space shift in role implementation. The situation shows that domestic spaces in the public sphere are increasingly diversified for women's groups.
