ABSTRACTGender gaps in tourism entrepreneurship are wide in Ethiopia, and women entrepreneurs underperform more often than men entrepreneurs. This study aimed to explore the determinants that affect the growth of women-owned micro and small enterprises (MSEs) in the tourism sector. Stratified random sampling was used to select 238 women-owned enterprises and analyse the data collected from them using a logit regression model. The findings show that being an older operator and operating a micro- (instead of small) enterprise have a negative effect, but family size, operator’s experience, credit access, and training received by the operator have positive effects on growth. These findings give useful information to relevant stakeholders, the Government of Ethiopia, and governments in other African countries to promote and empower women to grow their tourism MSEs.KEYWORDS: Women's tourism enterprisegrowthgrowth constraintsmultiple regressionsurvey Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Notes1 The definition of micro- and small enterprises (MSEs) varies considerably across countries, and different institutions within the same country (Ali and Ali Citation2013). In Ethiopia, the current definition of MSEs was revised in 2016 (Andaregie et al. Citation2022). In the revised definition, a firm is (i) micro-enterprise if it has ≤5 employees and has a total asset of ≤US$4,630 if it is an industrial sector, and ≤US$2,310 if it is a service sector; and (ii) small enterprise if it has between 6 and 30 employees and has a total asset of between US$4,630 and US$69,500 if it is an industrial sector, and between US$2,310 and US$23,150 if it is a service sector (MUDH Citation2016).Additional informationNotes on contributorsZemin Guadie TegegneZemene Guadie Tegegne is a lecturer in tourism management at Injibara University, Ethiopia.

在埃塞俄比亚，旅游业创业的性别差距很大，女性企业家的表现往往不如男性企业家。本研究旨在探讨影响妇女拥有的微型和小型企业(MSEs)在旅游部门增长的决定因素。采用分层随机抽样的方法，选取238家女性拥有的企业，采用logistic回归模型对数据进行分析。研究结果表明，年龄较大的经营者和经营微型(而不是小型)企业对增长有负面影响，但家庭规模、经营者经验、信贷获取和经营者接受的培训对增长有积极影响。这些调查结果为相关利益攸关方、埃塞俄比亚政府和其他非洲国家政府提供了有用的信息，以促进和增强妇女的权能，以发展其旅游中小企业。关键词:女性旅游企业成长约束多元回归调查披露声明作者未发现潜在利益冲突。注1微型和小型企业(MSEs)的定义在不同国家和同一国家的不同机构有很大差异(Ali and Ali Citation2013)。在埃塞俄比亚，mse的当前定义于2016年进行了修订(Andaregie et al.)。Citation2022)。在修订后的定义中，企业为(1)微型企业，如果是工业部门，员工人数不超过5人，总资产不超过4630美元;如果是服务业，总资产不超过2310美元;(ii)小型企业，如果拥有6至30名员工，总资产在4,630美元至69,500美元之间，如果是工业部门，则为2,310美元至23,150美元之间(MUDH Citation2016)。本文作者是埃塞俄比亚因吉巴拉大学旅游管理专业的讲师。他的研究兴趣是旅游发展。Tess Astatkie是加拿大达尔豪斯大学农学院的统计学教授。他也是美国统计协会和加拿大统计学会认可的专业统计学家。他与31个国家的研究人员进行合作研究。Desalegn Degu Tebeje是埃塞俄比亚因吉巴拉大学的经济学讲师。他的研究领域涉及经济效率、小企业、生计保障和发展问题。Sintayehu Aynalem Aseres是马达瓦拉布大学旅游管理学助理教授。他的研究兴趣为旅游品牌、可持续旅游、旅游与环境、旅游与妇女赋权、生态旅游和保护。Versavel Tecleab Haile是埃塞俄比亚玛达瓦拉布大学市场营销管理系的讲师。她的研究主要集中在不同方面的性别相关问题，包括服务营销、农业和创新。

ABSTRACTReference groups can influence an individual’s perceptions of social and gender norms which can affect health beliefs, behaviours, and outcomes. This qualitative study in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo explored young women’s and men’s reference groups for relationship dynamics and family planning. Some reference groups and mechanisms of influence were common to relationship dynamics and family planning. Some exercised influence through certain mechanisms but not others. Understanding these dynamics can contribute to effective interventions which curtail intimate partner violence and increase access to voluntary uptake of family planning, both paramount to advancing the rights and health of women and girls.KEYWORDS: Youthhealthsub-Saharan Africafamily planning and sexual healthgender and intersectionalityreference groups AcknowledgementsFT (researcher) and AM (research manager) of EXPERT S.A.R.L. were based in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

ABSTRACTThe COVID-19 shock resulted in a large number of people becoming newly poor in Bangladesh, for whom recovery was slow and difficult. In response, BRAC implemented a nationwide program – credit, business planning support, and mentoring – targeting the economic recovery of the new poor. This paper estimates its impact using a mixed method and finds that the program had a significant positive effect on employment, income, and assets, indicating a faster economic recovery of program participants. The learnings from this program can have major policy implications for future disaster responses targeting livelihood recovery, specifically during the time-sensitive transitory phase from relief to long-term development.KEYWORDS: Poverty; economic recovery; livelihood; development; Bangladesh Acknowledgement of author’s positionalityThe authors work at the BRAC Institute of Governance and Development (BIGD), a research institute of Brac University. Brac University is an independent entity under the University Grants Commission (UGC) of the Government of Bangladesh. On the other hand, the intervention was designed and executed by the BRAC NGO, which is not affiliated with BIGD.

ABSTRACTGrounded in a qualitative case study design and relying on key informant interviews and focus group discussion, this study assesses the influence of the cassava dough enterprise on women’s economic empowerment in a rural Ghanaian community. Women in the study community are marginalised in accessing arable land, which is a critical livelihood asset. Cassava dough processing, which is a women-dominated activity, has become an alternative and lucrative business for women. Women's engagement in cassava dough processing is driven by myriad factors that are rooted in their sociocultural settings and gender norms. Women engaged in cassava dough processing and sales have enhanced their economic empowerment through increased access to regular income, improved financial autonomy and saving behaviour, and contributed to community development. The study recommends the need to prioritise policies, programs, and interventions that create an enabling environment for community-based women’s economic empowerment strategies in poor and vulnerable communities.KEYWORDS: Gender empowermentrural economic developmentlivelihoodsself-managed businessGhana Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.

There is a paucity of official data on violence against women (VAW) in Mexico. Two-hundred and seventy-two household surveys and seven focus group discussions with 50 women were conducted to explore women’s experiences of VAW in public spaces in Corregidora, Mexico. Seven semi-structured interviews with stakeholders were carried out to understand their knowledge of VAW and reduction measures through infrastructure delivery and urban planning. Results showed that the most common and recurring type of VAW was catcalling, and 39 per cent of survey participants experienced at least one type of VAW. Government stakeholders appeared either unaware of the extent of VAW or were dismissive of its impact. The disconnect between women’s experiences and stakeholders’ views has implications for the design and implementation of safety measures for women.

Two-hundred and seventy-two household surveys and seven focus group discussions with 50 women were conducted to explore women’s experiences of VAW in public spaces in Corregidora, Mexico. Seven semi-structured interviews with stakeholders were carried out to understand their knowledge of VAW and reduction measures through infrastructure delivery and urban planning. Results showed that the most common and recurring type of VAW was catcalling, and 39 per cent of survey participants experienced at least one type of VAW. Government stakeholders appeared either unaware of the extent of VAW or were dismissive of its impact.
