Abstract: A reduction in Quality of life (QoL) is evidenced among disempowered populations in Low Middle- Income Countries (LMIC) like Sri Lanka. Women in marginalized populations were culturally identified as potential persons who have care responsibilities to break the vicious cycle of poverty through capacity building. The aim of the study focuses on framework analysis to develop an implementation strategy with women empowerment to enhance the QoL of the community. A study was conducted for 4 years (2018-2022) in the Family Health Center, Kondavil, Northern Province, Sri Lanka, as a qualitative framework analysis using participatory action research methodology. As a result of the study, the empowered women coordinate several health service delivery programs for their community members and financially support their own families. The study can be concluded that women empowerment is an effective tool to improve the QoL of the community.
