https://mbajournals.in/index.php/JoEPDM/article/view/1756
<p><em>Despite extensive global commitments to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), recent reports indicate that only about </em><em>17% of the targets are currently on track</em><em>,</em><em> signalling severe gaps in poverty alleviation, social inclusion, climate action, and equitable economic growth. Conventional state-led programs and profit-centric markets have struggled to deliver integrated and lasting solutions, particularly in vulnerable communities. This persistent gap has intensified the search for innovative, hybrid models, positioning Social Entrepreneurship</em><em> (SE)</em><em> as a potential catalyst capable of aligning social missions with entrepreneurial strategies to accelerate sustainable development. The primary objective of this review is to critically analyze recent literature (2020–2025) to identify the </em><em>trends, enabling factors, challenges, and policy implications</em><em> shaping SE’s role in driving sustainable development outcomes. A synthesis of </em><em>several studies</em><em> reveals compelling evidence of SE’s transformative impact: initiatives increased women’s employment by </em><em>37%</em><em>, reduced community waste streams by </em><em>35–45%</em><em>,</em><em> delivered </em><em>2.5 million solar home systems</em><em> to over </em><em>20 million underserved people</em><em>, and achieved </em><em>2.4× higher capital access</em><em> when supported by legal recognition and policy instruments. Core enabling factors identified include </em><em>finance access, capacity building, policy support, technological innovation, and impact measurement systems</em><em>.</em></p> <p><em>This review is significant as it consolidates fragmented findings into a coherent framework, offering actionable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers. It demonstrates that well-supported Social Entrepreneurship</em><em> (SE)</em><em> ecosystems can bridge systemic gaps left by traditional approaches, making this review a timely and essential contribution for accelerating progress toward the SDGs</em>.</p>Saurabh Pandey, Swati Mishra, Nimesh Gupta, Amit Tiwari

https://mbajournals.in/index.php/JoEPDM/article/view/1755
<p><em>The persistent challenge of achieving inclusive social transformation and long-term sustainability has drawn attention to social entrepreneurship as a hybrid mechanism for addressing developmental gaps that governments and markets alone cannot resolve. Despite its growing recognition, existing scholarship remains fragmented many studies focus narrowly on single sectors, use qualitative descriptions without robust measurement, or underrepresent certain regions, creating a significant research gap in understanding the multidimensional role of social entrepreneurship in advancing sustainable development. This review synthesizes over two decades of literature, complemented by illustrative figures showing sectoral focus, regional spread, and measurable outcomes. Our findings reveal that education (22%), livelihoods (20%), and healthcare (18%) dominate social entrepreneurship initiatives, with South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa receiving disproportionate research attention. Impact indicators highlight notable improvements, including a 25% rise in income, 35% school retention, and 65% clean energy adoption. The key contribution of this review lies in developing an integrative framework that connects micro-level entrepreneurial practices with macro-level sustainable outcomes, while also identifying methodological gaps in impact assessment. By consolidating diverse evidence, mapping thematic areas, and aligning outcomes with SDGs, this paper demonstrates the transformative significance of social entrepreneurship and provides a roadmap for future research, policy, and practice</em></p>Amit Tiwari, Saurabh Pandey, Swati Mishra, Nimesh Gupta

https://mbajournals.in/index.php/JoEPDM/article/view/1725
<p><em>The entrepreneurial landscape is experiencing a profound shift, with women assuming a more prominent role in driving the global economy forward. Despite encountering various obstacles and biases, women entrepreneurs are becoming a formidable force, propelling innovation, job creation, and economic growth. Encouraging women entrepreneurs is not just about achieving gender equality but also a crucial step towards maximizing the economic potential of the entire world. The limited sample size (15 participants) from U.T. Dadra and Nagar Haveli is selected. Created a questionnaire with five sections. The findings reveal that passion, financial independence, and a desire to contribute to the economy are primary motivators. </em><em>This research uses a mixed-methods approach, involving a questionnaire with five sections. The respondents, aged 25 to 57, were highly educated and from urban and rural areas. The main challenges faced by women entrepreneurs included work-life balance, societal and cultural barriers, and discrimination. Strategies for empowerment included training in marketing and sales, technology, and access to finance. Networking and collaboration were crucial for business expansion, with 55% of women working with collaboration. Policy support included simplified regulatory procedures, tax incentives, and stimulus packages. Key findings revealed that motivations for starting a business were passion, financial independence, and creating jobs. Challenges included accessing finance, marketing, and managing work-life balance. Support systems included family, mentors, and online resources. The study recommends government initiatives, networking and mentorship opportunities, and targeted education and training programs for women entrepreneurs. Future research should include longitudinal studies and comparative analyses.</em></p>Nandkishor Damodhar Bodkhe

https://mbajournals.in/index.php/JoEPDM/article/view/1724
<p><em>Training and development have become increasingly important in an era where innovation is the foundation of competitive advantage, particularly in India's rapidly evolving IT landscape. The impact of T&D operations on the creative work practices of workers at some of the leading MNCs, including Infosys, TCS, Wipro, and Accenture, was investigated in this study. This study examines the efficacy of technical, behavioral, and leadership-focused training programs using a descriptive and correlational research technique supported by secondary data sources, including reports from LinkedIn, NASSCOM, BCG, Gallup, and company whitepapers. The results show that actual innovation outputs, such as patent filings and employee-led projects, are strongly positively correlated with AI-centric training, particularly with GenAI tools. Psychological safety, idea implementation, and staff engagement are further improved by behavioral training and leadership. The report emphasizes the need for integrated, wellbeing-centered learning models to optimize innovation potential, even as it points out notable advancements in T&D methods. The information advances our knowledge of how effective T&D tactics can support an ongoing innovation culture in the Indian IT sector.</em></p>Saroj

https://mbajournals.in/index.php/JoEPDM/article/view/1695
<p><em>This study focuses on the creative digital techniques used by women micro-entrepreneurs in Uttar Pradesh, India. The utilization of technologies such as WhatsApp Business, YouTube, UPI, and Meesho is identified through a thematic content analysis of secondary data sources, which include publications, journal articles, and platform case studies. The findings show that women in rural and semi-urban settings creatively use low-cost digital platforms to overcome constraints to market access, mobility, and client interaction. However, adoption is hampered by issues such as digital illiteracy, internet unreliability, and socio-cultural norms. This study provides governments, non-governmental organizations, and digital training providers with the material insights into ways to improve inclusive entrepreneurship through targeted interventions and support systems. Despite the promising advancements, the study uncovers several enduring challenges that continue to limit the widespread adoption and consistent use of digital tools among women micro-entrepreneurs. Major obstacles include low levels of digital literacy, unreliable internet access, limited availability of smartphones, and entrenched socio-cultural barriers that constrain women’s engagement in economic and public spheres. By examining both the enabling factors and existing limitations, the study provides practical recommendations for stakeholders such as policymakers, NGOs, and digital education providers. It emphasizes the need for focused strategies, including community-based digital literacy initiatives, enhancements in digital infrastructure, structured mentorship programs, and the development of platforms tailored specifically to women’s needs. Such measures are vital for fostering a more equitable entrepreneurial environment, enabling women to fully engage with the digital economy and contribute to sustainable local development.</em></p>Rakshita Verma

https://mbajournals.in/index.php/JoEPDM/article/view/1715
<p><em>This paper explores the emerging challenges and opportunities faced by the next generation of women. As societal norms evolve, young women today are empowered by advancements in education, technology, and entrepreneurship. Nevertheless, women still encounter major challenges like gender discrimination, unequal treatment in the workplace, and societal expectations. This paper discusses the ongoing struggles women face while also highlighting the ways they are breaking through these obstacles to carve out new opportunities for success and leadership. Despite notable progress, women still encounter considerable challenges. Issues such as gender discrimination, unequal treatment in the workplace, disparities in pay, limited representation in leadership roles, and societal or familial pressures continue to restrict their full engagement and advancement. Additionally, the challenge of balancing professional aspirations with traditional responsibilities often creates added stress for young women striving to establish their careers and personal lives. This paper explores these ongoing obstacles while also highlighting the proactive measures women are taking to rise above them. It investigates the roles of resilience, access to education, supportive mentorship, and policy-driven change in opening new pathways for women’s empowerment. Through an analysis of current examples and evolving patterns, the study offers valuable insights into the changing circumstances facing the next generation of women and emphasizes the urgent need for sustained efforts, inclusive policies, and gender-sensitive structures to ensure lasting and equitable progress.</em></p>Dhanashree Sanjay Vispute
