Women's Entrepreneurship and Microfinance
Author: Chiranjib Neogi
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811042683
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
This book offers a critical perspective on the issues related to women’s empowerment, microfinance, and entrepreneurship in India. Written by distinguishing experts in this field, this book highlights women’s empowerment, which is a process of entrusting power to an individual on the control over resources and decisions. However, these two factors are less effective in a society where religion and cultural dominance is high. The book sheds light on the social security measures undertaken by the government aiming to the right to work helped women who are bounded by social restrictions. Over time there is a shift in rural occupational structure towards non-farm activities, which is largely distress driven self-employment. Access to credit is a great source to provide self-employment that develops self-esteem among women and uplift their position. The book highlights the discrimination against women entrepreneurs in access to credit led to gender biased entrepreneurial society. Association with self-help groups (SHGs) has made women more socially empowered. SHG members help them to change their life in a positive manner through micro-entrepreneurial activities. The book has emphasized on the role of microfinance, which has served the poor to become financially self-reliant. It is observed that for second generation borrowers, the impact of microfinance seems to fizzle out, where MFIs who are gaining efficiency are diverting their objective of servicing poor, signalling a sign of mission drift.

Self-Employment Activities of Women and Minorities
Author: Ursula Apitzsch
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3531908162
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
The discussion on new forms of non-privileged self-employment of women and minorities is usually divided into separate discourses on women’s opportunities on the one hand and ethnic business on the other. The focus in the discussion about the special resources of migrant entrepreneurship has been above all on the assumed collective traditions of ethnic business and not on the individual emancipative resources of the self-employed. This book has brought the two discourses together. While women and migrants are most vulnerable to social exclusion on the labour market, at the same time they are subjects of unrecognized resources for self-employment that have to be taken into account under the special conditions of social citizenship policies in the European Union.

Author: Geetha Madhuri Tentu
Publisher: LAP Lambert Academic Publishing
ISBN: 9783659625954
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
The Government of India has enacted many legislations, policies, programmes, schemes, etc. and had put them into action through various five year plans. From Fifth Five Year Plan onwards there has been a marked shift in the approach to women's issues from welfare to development and of women empowerment has been recognized as the central issue in determining the status of women. Keeping this in view the central and state governments have been implementing many programmes and schemes to empower women economically, socially, politically and legally. One such programme is empowering women through micro-credit vis-a-vis Self-Help Groups. Self Help Groups (DWCRA Groups), as sub-scheme of integrated Rural Development Scheme (IRDP), started in Andhra Pradesh in 1982-83 with UNICEF cooperation with the primary objective of focusing attention on the women members of rural families living below the poverty line with a view to generate self employment on a sustained basis. The focus of SHG strategy is on participation, savings, and credit and income generation for economic empowerment of poor households.
