Sustainable Entrepreneurship in Rural Areas

Bahareh Ansari, S M Mirdamadi, Azita Zand, Masoumeh Arfaee · 2013 · Research Journal of Environmental and Earth Sciences

Summary. Rural entrepreneurship reduces poverty, migration, and creates employment in rural areas. This study identifies barriers to rural entrepreneurship—including lack of capital, poor supply chains, economic dependence, and weak institutional support—and proposes a model for sustainable rural entrepreneurship. The research concludes that comprehensive rural development requires creating conditions for sustainable entrepreneurship, which enables communities to identify local resources and opportunities while solving problems and improving village conditions.
