Each case study produced rich information on the programs context, the landscape of programs in each country, and the qualitative insights from local EET stakeholders. This report synthesizes information from across the case studies to analyze the extent to which these countries programs are meeting the needs of local entrepreneurs. It also introduces findings from global EET research to show how programs in the case-study countries relate to what is known about global practice in EET. From this synthesis, the report presents a set of key findings intended to illuminate how EET programs can be better aligned with local needs and promising EET practices globally.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCELERATORACCESS TO CAPITALACCESS TO FINANCEACCESS TO FINANCINGACCESS TO LOANSADMINISTRATIVE BURDENSADULT BASIC EDUCATIONBANKSBASIC EDUCATIONBUREAUCRATIC RED TAPEBUSINESS ACTIVITIESBUSINESS ACUMENBUSINESS ASSISTANCEBUSINESS ASSOCIATIONSBUSINESS COMMUNITYBUSINESS ENTERPRISEBUSINESS OWNERSHIPBUSINESS PERFORMANCEBUSINESS PLANBUSINESS SUCCESSBUSINESS SUPPORTBUSINESS TRAININGCAPITAL ASSETSCAPITAL DEVELOPMENTCAREER CHOICECCCENTER FOR WOMENCITIESCLASSROOMCLASSROOM ACTIVITIESCOLLABORATIONCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTCONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORKCORRUPTIONCULTURAL BIASESCULTURAL VALUESDECISION MAKINGDEMOCRACYDEVELOPMENT BANKDIVERSIFICATIONDONOR SUPPORTEARLY CHILDHOODEARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC CONDITIONSECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC EMPOWERMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMICSECONOMISTSEDUCATION LEVELEDUCATION PROGRAMSEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATIONAL BACKGROUNDEDUCATIONAL BACKGROUNDSEMPIRICAL RESEARCHEMPIRICAL STUDIESEMPLOYMENT GROWTHEMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIESENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENTENTERPRISE GROWTHENTREPRENEURENTREPRENEURIAL ACTIVITIESENTREPRENEURIAL ACTIVITYENTREPRENEURIAL ATTITUDESENTREPRENEURIAL BEHAVIORSENTREPRENEURIAL DEVELOPMENTENTREPRENEURIAL EDUCATIONENTREPRENEURIAL ENVIRONMENTENTREPRENEURIAL ENVIRONMENTSENTREPRENEURIAL OPPORTUNITIESENTREPRENEURIAL OPPORTUNITYENTREPRENEURIAL SKILLSENTREPRENEURIAL SUCCESSENTREPRENEURSENTREPRENEURSHIP DEVELOPMENTENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAININGENVIRONMENTALENVIRONMENTSFAMILY FARMSFARMERSFARMSFEDERAL RESERVEFEDERAL RESERVE BANKFINANCIAL CAPITALFINANCIAL INTERMEDIATIONFINANCIAL OBLIGATIONSFINANCIAL RESOURCESFINANCIAL SKILLSFINANCIAL SUPPORTFOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTFOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTSFORMAL TRAININGGENERAL SECONDARY EDUCATIONGIRLSGLOBAL INTERESTGOVERNMENT POLICIESGOVERNMENT POLICYHIGH INTEREST RATESHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN DEVELOPMENTIDIMPEDIMENTS TO BUSINESSINDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENTINFORMAL ECONOMYINFORMATION SHARINGINFORMATION TECHNOLOGYINTEREST RATESINTERNATIONAL BANKINTERNATIONAL FINANCEINTERNSHIPSINTERVENTIONSINVESTMENT DECISIONSJOB CREATIONJOB OPPORTUNITIESKNOWLEDGE GAPLABOR FORCELABOR MARKETLABOR PRODUCTIVITYLACK OF ACCESSLACK OF INFORMATIONLAND USELEADERSHIPLEARNINGLOW ENTRY BARRIERSMARKET DEVELOPMENTMARKET INFORMATIONMINORITY BUSINESSNATURAL RESOURCE BASENEEDS OF ENTREPRENEURSNETWORKING OPPORTUNITIESNEW BUSINESSNEW ENTRANTSNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSOILPERSONALITYPOLITICAL ECONOMYPOOR ACCESSPREJUDICEPRIMARY COMMODITIESPROBLEM SOLVINGPROBLEM SOLVING SKILLSPROFITABILITYPROGRAMMINGPROMOTION EFFORTSPUBLIC POLICYPUBLIC SCHOOLREAL ESTATERED TAPEREFUGEESREGULATORY REGIMESRESEARCH AGENDASRURAL WOMENSCHOOL CURRICULUMSCHOOLSSECONDARY EDUCATIONSELF-EMPLOYMENTSMALL BUSINESSSMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATIONSMALL ENTERPRISESMALL ENTERPRISESSMALL-SCALE ENTERPRISESSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL WORKSTART-UPSTREAMSSTRUCTURAL UNEMPLOYMENTSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTTARGET POPULATIONSTAX RATESTEACHER EDUCATIONTEACHINGTECHNICAL SUPPORTTECHNOLOGICAL CHANGETRAINING COURSESTRAINING INTERVENTIONSTRAINING PROGRAMSTRANSPORTATION SERVICESUNEMPLOYMENTUNEMPLOYMENT RATESUNIVERSITIESVILLAGEVOCATIONAL EDUCATIONVULNERABLE GROUPSWOMEN BUSINESS OWNERSWOMEN ENTREPRENEURSWOMEN ENTREPRENEURSHIPWORK EXPERIENCEYOUTH10.1596/978-1-4648-0278-2
