The Micro Enterprise Development Programme wishes to thank Alliance Nepal for Social Mobilization which was commissioned to conduct the study. The Programme would also like to thank professionals and individuals that helped in the process of successfully completing this study. The Programme would like to acknowledge the invaluable support of all the programme staff who were involved in the preparation of this report along with Ms. Bidula Shrestha, Marketing Specialist and Ms.Geeta Pandey, Gender and Training specialist. The objective of the study was designed to identify the special needs of women in the microenterprise development sector with particular reference to MEDEP's terai and hill districts locations such as Nawalaparasi, and Nuwakot. The aim of the study was to analyze ways to increase women’s participation in micro-enterprise development as well as their share of benefits. Two districts were chosen to assess constraints faced by women as well as opportunities, which might be available to them based on their skills, interest and knowledge. The purpose of the research was also to provide a basis for the programme to monitor its progress in reaching its goal of mainstreaming gender equity.
