The Indonesian women's movement was involved and became a part of the reform movement in 1998. This research aims to provide a comprehensive picture of the women's movement in West Java based on political opportunities, mobilisation structures, and framing of issues. The researcher used qualitative methods based on the degree of social experience-bound problems. The data collection techniques used were documentation studies and focus group discussions with activists representing three women's organisations in West Java. The findings demonstrated that the political opportunity structure of the Reformation era offered a chance to develop women's potential in West Java to create collective actions that varied in form, purpose, and movement strategy. The three women's organizations framed their activities differently and impacted the targets. Similarly, the resource mobilization process has a variety of strategies, and some of them are similar, such as the existence of critical dialogue spaces for women inside and outside the organization.
