Between do-it-yourself and survival, what models for female entrepreneurship?

In a context of globalization, women's entrepreneurship is increasingly assimilated almost automatically to a necessity entrepreneurship motivated by the obligation to create one's own business to get out of precariousness and poverty. Thus, survival entrepreneurship occupies a central place in all African societies. One only has to walk around African markets and public spaces to be convinced of this. This poverty/entrepreneurship dichotomy is the focus of all reflections. It is difficult to quantify statistically the importance of survival entrepreneurship throughout the world. In particular, Africa and Asia escape any real statistics. In fact, the achievement of entrepreneurial practices by women is shaped by their family, religious, economic, but also political environment. This is shown by a multitude of research studies. However, it seems useful to question this work in the Maghreb and Sahelian context in order to explore new ways to revive women's entrepreneurship in this regional space.
