Absztrakt

This paper addresses an important literature gap concerning female entrepreneurship within rural communities in North Africa, particularly in Tunisia. This article is an overview of previous findings on the topic and specifically on the matter of environmental settings’ impacts on women’s efforts in rural entrepreneurship. The purpose of this overview is to provide a clearer picture on the situation of female entrepreneurship in rural areas, and the various obstacles that help explain both the work patterns and the home conditioning model. These obstacles include personal aspects as well as economic and demographic elements which may help in the development of assessment tools that aims to provide a more detailed approach to this subject. The exploration of these elements helps with the investigation of the impact of government support policies as well as the social and cultural effects on female entrepreneurship in the Tunisian countryside.
