Abstract
This paper brings together the evidence on how the productivity of women-owned enterprises
can be enhanced. It describes the economic benefits to women’s economic empowerment,
the economic gender gaps, the social and institutional barriers, and what we know about
solutions. It was originally prepared as background paper for the United Nations High-level
Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment.
