Women and Economic Development: Women Entrepreneurship Situation in Haiti

  • Nedjée Mauconduit, Etzer S. Emile, and Bénédique Paul

Summary

Women’s role in economic development is commonly admitted. But in many countries, women’s economic activities are still an extension of historical
domestic occupation. In this article, we analyze the Haitian women entrepreneurial situation and show that women empowerment currently claimed
by many actors is more romantic than economically pragmatic since women stay in poverty and undervalued business.
