Abstract: | Entrepreneurship development has become recognized as a functional means of tackling South Africa’s socioeconomic challenges
of slow growth rate, rapidly increasing unemployment, and racially inequitable distribution of income. However, current policies
and programs ignore the potential input of the female gender. Yet, females are proven to be capable of using their peculiar
gender dispositions effectively as small and micro entrepreneurs. The article examines the socioeconomic outcomes of South
Africa’s systemic crisis, gender-specific influences on entrepreneurial supply and alternative women-in-entrepreneurship programs
that could be implemented with sensitivity to that country’s sociocultural diversity. |
