Furthermore, women are key proponents of this change; as compared to men, women are more likely to reinvest income into the wellbeing of their children and community. At first glance, female entrepreneurship – a perfect intersection between these factors of autonomy and efficiency – seems to be a silver bullet. And yet, as promising as this approach is in theory, it is challenged by a reality called the feminization of poverty; a phenomenon in which women are disproportionately subjected to the issues and related effects of poverty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During my time in Dakar, I have had the opportunity to understand how this manifests in the lives of female entrepreneurs.

To take the example of finance, money between spouses in Senegal is generally managed by the husband.

The participants of the International Seminar proved to me without a doubt that women are capable of this, but first, more must be done to support female entrepreneurs – physically, mentally, and emotionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the Seminar, this was clear; while the technical trainings were valuable, what impacted the participants most were the bonds they built amongst one another. Despite the differences in language, origin, or culture, they understood one another’s struggles and grew excited to celebrate each other’s success. During the span of two weeks, these 20 formidable women built a network of not only friends, but partners; a support group in the truest of senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their limited time together, these women created a resource, rich in tools and knowledge, to help equip other young women in beginning or growing their business. Through their collective force, the participants even came so far as to plan their next projects together, in Canada and Senegal alike, which will only strengthen their bond for years to come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I move forward from this experience into my remaining months in sunny Dakar, I understand now more than ever that development is not merely a matter of funding, target audiences, and technology transfer. Rather, it is a purely human affair and deserves to be treated as such. As we ask female entrepreneurs to tackle some of society’s greatest challenges, we cannot forget the importance of their relationships, personal lives, and emotions; these facets are a part of the process like any other. For the sake of development and the women who drive it, we must transform the way we approach entrepreneurship and with it, our world.\u003C\u002Fp>",{"metaTitleContainer":1407,"metaTagContainer":1408,"metaLinkContainer":1409,"metaJsonLdContainer":1410},"{\"title\":{\"title\":\"Businesswomen budge the line on poverty: The burdens (and… | CECI\"}}","{\"generator\":{\"content\":\"SEOmatic\",\"name\":\"generator\"},\"keywords\":[],\"description\":{\"content\":\"A few months ago, my thoughts on female entrepreneurship were few and far between.
