An investigation into ways of economic empowerment of rural in Dr Ruth's Mompati district municipality
Abstract
The study was designed to identify rural women's constraints in economic
empowerment, regarding their participation in LED activities and mainly how the
rural women can be empowered for sustainable agricultural development in the
district of Dr Ruth S Mompati, North West Province, South Africa. A large
proportion of the respondents reported that they have problems and constraints in
accessing information regarding Local Economic Development Activities and they
don't even know the organisations that are providing LED Services in their
respective municipal areas. However, by addressing these constraints effectively
the situation of women empowerment can be improved in rural areas.
