| dc.description.abstract | Entrepreneurial initiatives targeting disadvantaged populations can be a tool for improving the well-being of households, particularly those suffering from food insecurity. This study aims to analyse the contribution of inclusive business models (IBMs) to improving household food security in Burkina Faso. The data used in this study were collected from 780 beneficiaries and non beneficiaries of Inclusive Business Models in the cities of Ouagadougou and Bobo-Dioulasso in 2019, as part of a research project on the economic inclusion of youth and women in inclusive entrepreneurship in Africa. The methodological approaches are based on endogenous switching regressions and propensity score matching models of participation in such activities and gains in terms of food expenditure and dietary diversity. The results show that participation in IBMs has a positive impact on household food expenditure and dietary diversity in Burkina Faso. The potentially significant contribution of IBMs could provide the empirical basis for such a public strategy to promote food security and, more generally, the well-being of households in Burkina Faso | |
