Calling All Libyan Businesswomen

Calling All Libyan Businesswomen
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

By Padraig O'Hannelly.

Although accounting for half the population, women in Libya remain underrepresented in business life.

Organisations such as the Voice of Libyan Women, the British Council, and Libya Enterprise, among others, have run programmes specifically aimed at helping women to start and develop their own businesses. Yet, despite these initiatives, women-owned and women-run enterprises are still very much the exception.

To add to the problem, the Voice of Libyan Women says that where women-owned businesses exist, they are rarely given the opportunity to do business with the local or federal governments.

Two years after the revolution, have the opportunities and climate for businsesswomen improved or deteriorated? Have the various schemes been useful, and what more can be done to facilitate new female entrepreneurs?

We'd love to hear from you, especially if you are a women who is in business, or considering starting a business. Please share your views in the Comments section below. You can also contact us at Editor@libya-businessnews.com if you prefer not to comment publicly.
