Practices to Sustain Women Entrepreneurs and Economic Development

Abstract

Women are the nucleus of a nation. They are the actual architects and designers of a country’s future. In any community, the position and status of women serve as a barometer of its development and civilisation. Even though, it has been more than 50 years since independence, women’s entrepreneurial development has not progressed as quickly as other indicators of development. They can take on all kinds of responsibilities at different stages of their lives. Men and women share responsibilities. The term “women’s entrepreneurship” means leading and managing a woman’s business. Rapid changes in urbanization, education, and technology have significantly changed the role of women. A country’s economy can slow down if women entrepreneurs are not well known in their businesses. Women entrepreneurs need to be given equal opportunities to demonstrate their talents, knowledge, etc., so women should challenge themselves in the domestic and global markets for the survival and sustainable growth of India’s commerce, management, and economy. Women have aided in the overall growth of the nation. At their best, women contribute in many different areas, such as banking, industry, the government, and even at the political level. Women in India are deprived of various facilities such as proper education, financial support, and family restrictions. Although the Indian government has implemented numerous policies in this area, more work remains. This research paper has been prepared to understand the face of women’s entrepreneurship in today’s world and the role of the Government of India in the overall development of women’s entrepreneurship.
