Through interviews with disabled businesswomen and at their places of enterprise, the video promotes new, more accurate images of women with disabilities in developing countries as micro-entrepreneurs supporting themselves and their families, and agents of economic development. International development organizations will gain insights and practical recommendations to more effectively tap the potential of women with disabilities as clients, businesswomen and economic contributors. People with disabilities in the US will gain international perspectives on the economic challenges and strategies of women with disabilities southern countries.
