Female Entrepreneurship in College Students: A Literature Review

ABSTRACT

There are still gender asymmetries in entrepreneurship, which generates that female entrepreneurship is lower than that of men, so there must be equity and gender jus-tice that may imply acting with coherence in an econo-mic, political and cultural environment providing women with the same opportunities as men. For this reason, in the present article it was intended to characterize female en-trepreneurship in university students as a response to the pandemic of COVID 19, being the same of bibliographic review in which the PRISMA schematization was consi-dered, through an exhaustive search of articles in the va-rious databases such as Scopus, Science Direct, Scielo and Ebsco of which it was possible to analyze 20 articles by complete reading, These were from 2018 to 2022, with which it was concluded that women tend to undertake mostly by necessity, either economic or to feel self-reali-zed and advance in their careers, or because they are not satisfied with their jobs, since their workplace does not allow them to move up to a position with higher hierarchy and prefer to spend more time with their children.
