Women generate resources through a variety of enterprises because consumption requirements of the poorest households usually exceeds income. But the efforts of women are unrecorded and overlooked, despite their notable contribution to the household economy. Women's enterprises are generally house based due to their family responsibilities and belief in traditional values. Women are invisible but are the key playes in micro enterprises development. They are everywhere whether they are workers engaged in income saving activities like collecting fuel, fodder and water or unpaid domestic workers cooking and washing clothes, tailoring at home and working elsewhere as nurses, helpers, labours and other domestic works or managers of micro enterprises.
Women are continueously at work within the household premises.
Their role outside the household is often rare. They are concentrated in activities that are easy to operate, require less capital and little physical effort. Most of these enterprises have social and welfare benefit including focus on market orientation and have produced encouraging results in terms of effectively increasing women's income and concentrate on women's economic activities. Women have other less tangible priorities, such as a more equal role and a greater sense of efficacy outside their household. The mobility of women and their access to information is strengthened by the process of interaction with people who come to buy their products and services.
