EDP Notes

Women constitute about 50% of the world population. In traditional societies, they are
confined to performing household activities. Hence women are generally called home makers. But
today, in modern society, they have moved out of the house and are taking part in all areas of life.
Today, the entrepreneurial world is open to the womenfolk. Thailand tops the list with 18.5% of
women as entrepreneurs followed by India with 14.1% women entrepreneurs. Japan has the lowest
rate of women entrepreneurs with just 0.6% women as entrepreneurs.
