It’s Wednesday March 20 and it’s now our turn to
introduce ourselves and our area of research.
Our group consists of Shakira and Deborah from MUBS and Anna and Hanna
from CBS. Shakira and Deborah are both doing a Master in Business
Administration, while Anna and Hanna are studying Business and Development
Studies back home. We are a group of four women, doing our research project
about women. The topic we decided to focus on is successful female
entrepreneurs in Uganda since we wanted to understand what barriers entrepreneurial
women in Uganda are facing and how they have overcome them.
Finding ourselves having worked together on the
project for a week and a half now, progress can definitely be seen (apart from
the fact that all the MUBS students are still having some problems differentiating
Anna and Hanna from one another). We have managed to interview some of the most
interesting and determined women in Uganda, and more interviews are scheduled.
With the project deadline in less than one week, it seems like all groups are
doing well but feeling the pressure.
Coming from different countries and cultural
backgrounds definitely contributes positively to the research. Without Deborah
and Shakira’s help, especially with regards to contacting companies/organizations
and finding the way to meetings, it is safe to say that Hanna and Anna would
have pulled their hair out long ago!
This experience and the new-established friendships
will not be forgotten.
