Growth-oriented economic strategies, which favor the allocation of government resources to high-growth sectors, are often criticized by women in development (WID) researchers, because of the concentration of women in low-growth, low-return microenterprises. This report argues the compatibility of the two concerns by delineating the potential for women entrepreneurs to participate in and contribute to regional and national economic growth processes. The paper establishes the importance of gender variables to microenterprise development, explores apparent contradictions between WID and growth-oriented approaches, and proposes a strategy that bridges growth- and gender-oriented approaches and capitalizes on their strengths and complementarities. The practicalities of implementing this strategy are explored in terms of entrepreneurial behavior that impedes or enhances adoption of a growth orientation, the effect of different income strategies on enterprise growth patterns and in particular on enterprise specialization and productivity, and the special constraints and disincentives female entrepreneurs face in increasing the level and stability of their enterprise or portfolio income.

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate. Source: award and document years
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
