Abstract
This article, published on May 24, 2021, discusses a study by the Mastercard Foundation, CAMFED, and the ILO identified groundnut and hand-crafted shea butter as the strongest agricultural value chains for creating sustainable work for young women in Northern Ghana. These women-dominated sectors face constraints like limited access to machinery, finance, and services. Recommended interventions will be applied to support successful entrepreneurship.
