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.
