The development of women's cooperatives in Turkey and the challenges they face are being examined in master's and theses using scientific approaches from various disciplines, including sociology, economics, and business administration. The purpose of this systematic review is to compile postgraduate theses on women's cooperatives published in Turkey between 2013 and 2023 through a comprehensive literature review and analysis. The aim is to present the perspectives of cooperative members, their strengths, the main problems they face, and potential solutions within a scientific framework.

When looking at the distribution by institute, it was observed that the most theses were written at the Institute of Social Sciences (n=16) and the least at the Institute of Natural Sciences. When looking at the distribution of postgraduate theses by university, it was observed that the most theses were written at Middle East Technical University (n=3). In addition, it is seen that qualitative design is mostly preferred as the research design and Turkish is preferred as the writing language. In conclusion, this study, which examined postgraduate theses written in different institutes and departments of different universities in the field of women's cooperatives, observed that women develop themselves individually, socially, and economically and
