dc.description.abstractThis study focused on Entrepreneurial Development, Gender and Economic Reforms in Tanzania. The main objective of the study was to investigate the extent to which some of the current economic reforms (particularly financial and trade liberalization) have directly or indirectly affected the development of local entrepreneurial activities with respect to gender. The study examined coping mechanisms or strategies used by both male and female local entrepreneurs. Both gender and policy issues were identified in the study. Moreover, the study solicited ideas for improving problems and challenges facing local entrepreneurs. Respondents interviewed included both male and female local entrepreneurs who own small and medium enterprises from the three districts in Dar es Salaam region including Kinondoni, Temeke, and Ilala. Two research methods were used for collecting data including secondary and primary. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected. The study revealed that, most local entrepreneurs running small and medium enterprises have been negatively affected by the ongoing economic reforms and in particular female entrepreneurs. The study recommended the need for designing gender sensitive economic reforms, and in particular trade, financial reforms and investment policies.en_US
