본 연구는 시민단체 활동가로서 살아가고 있는 자녀가 있는 여성들의 일과 다른 생활에서의 경험을 이해함으로써 그들의 지속가능한 일하는 삶의 조건은 무엇인지를 제시해보는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 B 지역에서 활동하는 자녀가 있는 여성 활동가 10명을 대상으로 초점집단면접을 실시하였고 그 결과 여성 활동가들이 활동하는 조직의 특성부터 여성 활동가로서의 다양한 경험, 자신의 일을 지속하기 위해 필요한 사회적 지원까지 이해할 수 있었다. 따라서 사회적으로 여성 활동가들의 노동에 대한 인식 변화부터 활동가들이 일을 지속할 수 있는 사회인프라 구축까지 다양한 측면에서의 고민이 이루어져야 하고 자녀가 있는 여성 활동가들을 위한 처우 개선 범위는 단순히 인건비로 한정되기보다는 더 확대될 필요가 있으며 그들이 일하는 조직의 특성과 요구를 고려한 다층적인 교육과 컨설팅이 제공될 필요가 있을 것이다. 본 연구는 시민사회 여성 활동가들의 일·생활 경험과 요구를 통해 그들의 일하는 삶을 이해할 수 있는 근거를 제공하고 여성 활동가들을 위한 사회적 지원의 범위를 생각할 수 있었다는 점에서 의의가 있으며, 향후 지속적인 연구를 통해 조금 더 다양한 여성단체와 풀뿌리 여성조직에서 활동하는 여성 활동가들의 욕구를 파악하고 추가적인 분석과 논의를 담아내야 할 것이다.
