DEVELOPMENT AGENDA
Agenda,discussions on women's entrepreneurship should highlight success stories and best practices of related policies and programmes, to feed into the on going debate about the future development framework. A number of lessons have been learned from the evaluations of UNIDO-supported programmes in Bhutan, Mali, Morocco, Mozambique and Pakistan. Specifically, these programmes have shown that educating and investing in upgrading women’s skills can have a knock-on effect on productivity, efficiency and economic growth. For example, activities such as training and providing business support services, or even sustainable energy solutions, to women entrepreneurs can significantly increase the profits of their businesses, help to provide decent work, and improve women’s standing within their families and communities.
