Povzetek

Avtorji so raziskovali pomen ekonomskega opolnomočenja žensk in njegov vpliv na porast ženskega podjetništva in človeškega kapitala v Bocvani. Raziskava je vključevala analizo študije primera s štirimi poglobljenimi strokovnimi intervjuji. Triangulacija podatkov je zagotovila veljavnost študije, primer pa je bil pregledan z ujemanjem vzorcev. Rezultati kažejo, da se podjetnice soočajo z izzivi, kot so dostop do virov in izobraževanja, družbeno-kulturne norme, pomanjkanje socialne zaščite ter velik in nezaščiten neformalni sektor. Vlada in institucije spodbujajo omogočenost žensk z neposrednim posredovanjem na trgu dela, podporo neformalnemu sektorju, ustavnim, pravnim in institucionalnim okvirom, ki upošteva enakost spolov, uveljavljanjem in nadzorom zakonov in politik, ki upoštevajo enakost spolov, ter dostopom do virov in izobraževanje. Poleg tega ženske potrebujejo digitalno vključenost, podjetniške mreže, socialno zaščito in reformirane družbeno-kulturne norme. Če bodo podjetnice ustrezno opolnomočene, bodo prispevale k človeškemu kapitalu, gospodarski rasti in razvoju držav.
