Abstract	The present study was undertaken with the main objective of analyzing the determinants of women leadership particpation in select Savings and credit cooperatives of Adama Woreda, Oromia Region, Ethiopia. The study was heavily dependent on primary data source. Semi structured interview schedule was administered to elicit the required information from the women leaders. Two stage sampling technique was employed to select the sample SACCOs and women leaders. In the first stage, SACCO’s which are affiliated to Abdi Gudina Saving and Credit Union having both men and women leaders as Board of directors, Control committee, Credit committee, Arbitration committee and Educational committee were selected for the study. As such 25 SACCO’s fulfilling the mentioned criteria was considered as study units. At the second stage, by adopting census method all women leaders of the SACCO’s were contacted for the study purpose (19 SACCOsX8 =152 + 6 SACCOsX7=42 total 194). Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the determinants of women leadership. The result of the logistic regression shows that independent variables such as age, sex, education level, contact with agent, experience of women leaders, and participation of women leaders in management and business affairs, social participation and cooperative training were found to have positive significant effect in determining women leadership. Nonetheless, variables such as family burden, exposure to mass media, and culture do not have any significant effect in determining the women leadership.
