From the resolution of sociocultural factors limiting female entrepreneurship to the promotional dynamics of women’s empowerment in Badessankro-Prikro (Republic of Côte d’Ivoire)

The issue of women's empowerment is at the origin of several social debates. Many of them opt for independence in their daily activities and emerge in order to intervene in the socializing aspects of the development of their community. This research aims to analyze the sociocultural factors of women's empowerment in rural areas from Badessankro to Prikro. A questionnaire survey and interviews were conducted with 46 women. Early pregnancies or marriages were revealed as sociocultural factors limiting entrepreneurship and empowerment among 87% of the women surveyed.
