Abstract

Women make up a significant portion of the workforce, and their economic contribution is inextricably linked to the framework of development. The role of women in commerce is steadily increasing globally, and the growth of women's entrepreneurship is a tool for empowering women thus, propelling gender balance in growth and social progress. Empowerment encourages self-actualization, and women's presence and rights are becoming stronger, both financially and individually, through owning a business. For these reasons, the current study is focused on empowering women through entrepreneurship advancement in Cameroon. It also aims to determine the overall impact of entrepreneurship advancement on women's status and the extent to which an entrepreneur is enabled in our country Cameroon.
