Abstract This study examined the effect of community-based tourism (CBT) on women's economic empowerment in the Iranian village of Jirsar Bagherkhaleh. Using a questionnaire containing Likert scale and free-text questions, data were gathered using a qualitative research methodology. The purpose of this study was to address the paucity of previous research in this particular context and to provide valuable insights for future community tourism initiatives and policies. The findings highlighted the positive effects of cognitive behavioral therapy on the economic empowerment of women in Jirsar Bagherkhah. The implementation of CBT provided equal employment opportunities, the enhancement of skills, and enhanced access to productive resources. Additionally, it challenged traditional gender roles and promoted greater gender equality in the community. The multiplier effects of CBT were evident in the increased household incomes and observable village development. However, the investigation identified obstacles that must be addressed. These included the need for more control over income and decision-making processes, as well as the need to combat discrimination and restrictive social norms that impede women's economic empowerment. When developing and implementing community-based tourism initiatives, policymakers and stakeholders should consider these factors. This study contributes to the literature on gender, empowerment, and community-based tourism, as stated in the conclusion. By shedding light on the economic empowerment of women in Jirsar Bagherkhaleh, this report provides policymakers, practitioners, and academics with valuable insights. The findings highlight the significance of promoting gender equality, providing equal opportunities, and addressing the unique obstacles women confront in community tourism projects. By incorporating these insights into future initiatives, inclusive and sustainable development in the village and beyond can be promoted.Abstract This study examined the effect of community-based tourism (CBT) on women's economic empowerment in the Iranian village of Jirsar Bagherkhaleh.
