- Authors
Alexandre, Laurice; Ndour, Mamour
- Abstract
This paper presents a research aimed at answering the following questions: what motivates Senegalese women to choose community groups in order to create ventures? How do institutions affect their entrepreneurial processes? To do so, an in-depth study of four cases of female community groups was conducted. The results show that, by way of the technical and psychological they provide, female community groups are a perfect setting to help women entrepreneurs succeed. This arrangement helps them also to best deal with organizing their personal lives. The entrepreneurial process is rather causal and lean, but definitely no less effective.
