Upcoming research on the entrepreneurial status of local women in developing countries with emphasis on the position of Iran

Given the incontrovertible role of women in rural development, strengthening the entrepreneurship of rural women is an effective solution to achieve sustainable rural development. Rural women entrepreneurship while boosting family returns, via lessening the gap between urban and rural households, saving costs of crop and livestock production, improving literacy and family health, providing household expenses as a head and reducing migration to cities can interest rural life and ultimately society as a whole. Thus, rural women entrepreneurs in developing countries, especially Iran, must have the requisite potentials and allow progress to reach a superior position by improving the level of knowledge.
