Women and youth in Banja Luka entrepreneurship ecosystem : promoting inclusive entrepreneurship ecosystems for women and youth
(2022)- Abstract
- By applying the ILO’s inclusive entrepreneurship ecosystem model, this report outlines key developments and challenges in the ecosystem for women and young entrepreneurs in Banja Luka. Numerous challenges identified under each pillar of the entrepreneurship ecosystem influence the pathways for decent work of women and young entrepreneurs who are part of the ecosystem, but many challenges can also act as catalysts for their exclusion from entering the ecosystem. Accordingly, addressing the challenges could potentially improve the entrepreneurship ecosystem, its accessibility and also its effects- the businesses it fosters and the working lives of entrepreneurs who run the
businesses.

Numerous challenges identified under each pillar of the entrepreneurship ecosystem influence the pathways for decent work of women and young entrepreneurs who are part of the ecosystem, but many challenges can also act as catalysts for their exclusion from entering the ecosystem. Accordingly, addressing the challenges could potentially improve the entrepreneurship ecosystem, its accessibility and also its effects- the businesses it fosters and the working lives of entrepreneurs who run the
businesses.
The ILO’s inclusive entrepreneurship ecosystem model and the subsequent
identification of priority areas proved to be a useful tool thanks to which it was possible to narrow down the focus of the report to challenges of women and young people within the support and markets pillars of the ecosystem. The proposed interventions aim to catalyse change within ecosystem actors to address ecosystem constraints with sustainable solutions, so that changes are maintained over time. Therefore, the proposed interventions are rooted in ecosystem actors based on their incentive and capacity to take on new roles in the ecosystem or enhance/modify their current roles. While with the proposed interventions attempted to address some of the challenges with a focus on the support and markets ecosystem pillars, positive spill over effects are expected to affect other pillars of the ecosystem and its overall dynamics.
