Abstract:

The dissertation examines rural entrepreneurship as a potential vehicle for facilitating local and regional development. Development of the rural areas is one of the top priorities of European Union. Consequently, the phenomenon of Rural entrepreneurship is also gaining importance in the European context, where for the purpose of cohesion of urban and rural area a substantial amount of resources is deployed on the annual basis. In this paper we analyze the role of entrepreneurship in the creation of wealth and employment in the peripheral context. The overall research questions revolve around:

Abstract:

According to World Bank Report published in 2012, the rural population in Sweden is 15.3 %. Rural population is calculated as difference between total populations minus urban population. 15.3 % clearly shows how important rural areas are for Sweden’s future development. Entrepreneurship plays the integral role in rural area development. However, earlier research has shown only economic perspective of rural development. On the other hand, the new ways to discover the challenges and opportunities for entrepreneurs in small firms were needed.

Abstract:

In rural Tanzania women play a crucially important role in social and economic production. However, the constraints of poverty, combined with poor infrastructure and minimal resources, limit entrepreneurial possibilities. Nonetheless, poor rural female entrepreneurs use enterprise to try to improve their lives. But this “survivalist” entrepreneurship appears radically different from western models of enterprise and we know very little about processes and practices. Literature suggests that there is a substantial gap of knowledge in terms of how much poor rural female entrepreneurs use entrepre

Abstract:

Poverty has long been a developmental challenge in the Global South in general and in sub-Saharan Africa in particular. Consequently, over recent decades different strategies and programmes such as the Millennium Development Goals have been employed to reduce poverty and to improve the quality of people’s lives. This is very much the case in Ghana, where major strides have towards reducing poverty. Nevertheless, the three northern regions (Northern, Upper East and Upper West) of the country have actually experienced a deteriorating situation with the proportion of people living in poverty incr

South Africa, unlike other developing countries, is classified as one of the best performing economies in Africa. Unfortunately the economic growth of the country continue to be limited by the general constraints of the small business sector, due to challenges of skills such as managerial skills, lack of global competition and the weak entrepreneurial performance.

The aim of this research is to understand why so few producers switch to a greater level of commercialisation, despite government support.

Abstract:

Entrepreneurship today has become an important professional skill to reduce poverty among rural women in Bangladesh. Recent studies show that most rural women borrowers claim that their sustainable socio-economic development depends on current ‘micro credit policy’. However, most women entrepreneurs’ practical situation is still vulnerable and unproductive, especially in rural Bangladesh. Usually, when a woman runs an enterprise solely, after a certain period, if she is unsuccessful, that micro credit turns into a burden for her. The study proposes to critique micro credit policy, because the

Many rural areas are undergoing structural changes as jobs in forestry, fishing, mining, agricultural and other natural resource-based industries decline.

They are faced with decreasing population as residents and their families leave for jobs elsewhere. As a result, the communities and residents are looking for alternative ways to create employment and sustain themselves.

Background: The importance of creating social and economic value through social entrepreneurship has gained recognition in recent decades.

Decentralisation, meaning the delegation of responsibilities from central to lower government levels is generally assumed to improve the delivery of local public services. The theoretical assumption is that local authorities are encouraged by decentralisation to behave in a more accountable and entrepreneurial fashion. At the same time, accountability and (public) entrepreneurship are distinct concepts and may even be considered to involve conflicting behaviours. Therefore, decentralisation outcomes may vary depending on which behavioural pattern predominates. Previous research has focused on

Abstract:

O empreendedorismo é, de um modo geral, a medida mais eficaz para o desenvolvimento da economia dos países. A aposta política, os incentivos e mecanismos desenvolvidos de apoio à criação de empresas, resultam da necessidade de existência de um tecido empresarial forte, como medida de sustentabilidade económica dos países. Portugal procura sair de uma grave crise resultante de uma recessão económica global, que afecta hoje as sociedades mais desenvolvidas. O aumento das taxas de desemprego e a eminência de falência da Segurança Social, determinam a urgência de incentivo à criação de e

Abstract:

The government of South Africa has seen many financial reforms in the finance industry since the attainment of freedom in 1994. Many microfinance institutions (MFIs) have emerged in the name of poverty reduction, however the impact of MFIs on poverty reduction in rural areas has not been significantly high. Poverty has been reduced but still the inequality gap has even widened (HSRC, 2004). The study is concerned with analysing the impact of MFIs in poverty reduction among the rural poor. Empirical evidence from many developing nations around the world has shown that microfinance is a tool tha
