Abstract

Rural women entrepreneurs are driving economic growth (jobs, diversified economies) and social progress (gender equality, empowered communities) through ventures in agriculture, handicrafts, and more. Despite challenges like limited access to finance and infrastructure, this proposal advocates for their support through tailored financial products, capacity building programs, infrastructure improvements, and gender-sensitive policies. By empowering these women, the authors unlock a path to sustainable and inclusive development for all.
