Tribal Women Entrepreneurs' Problems and Prospects in Nilgiri District of Tamil Nadu
Abstract:
In most underdeveloped countries, women are supposed to work only if it is necessary for the survival of her family. The greater the circle of relatives' poverty, the more their reliance on the incomes of women. Efforts to increase employment possibilities can be critical in allowing underprivileged women to make a living. A number of projects and programmes have been created to encourage women to work for themselves. In this scenario, marketing of women business among educated or illiterate women is a severe lack of time. A number of national and central government organisations, as well as nongovernmental organisations, are working to promote female entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurial development programmes organised by governmental organisations, as well as the actions of various grassroots organisations, have provided a tremendous boost to women's entrepreneurial development. Women-owned enterprises are growing rapidly in practically every country's economy. Women in advanced countries are recognised and prominent in business. However, Tamil Nadu women entrepreneurs face significant challenges in areas such as socio-personal, marketing, finance, and manufacturing. Furthermore, the issues of tribal women entrepreneurs become worse as time passes. These additional issues include a lack of information and experience, insufficient mobility, and liquidity and financial issues. Low education, lack of risk-taking capacity, shyness, lack of ambition, family involvements, financial constraints, and so on. Choosing the correct business opportunity for a venture might pay out handsomely in the long run. Women in Tamil Nadu generate business chances among tribal regions and develop socioeconomic settings in tribal communities. My current research is an attempt to look into the issue of tribal women's entrepreneurial development in Tamil Nadu and to suggest some remedial ways to enhance the existing country of tribal issues, as well as the country's current policy framework.
