(PAN-AFRIKAN ENTREPRENEURSHIP) - Young Africans, including young women, show a latent interest in business creation. Although entrepreneurship is not a panacea to the daunting challenge of youth unemployment across Africa, it is a critical pillar that stands to provide a livelihood for many and, in turn, create jobs for more young people. The findings also underscore the gap between relatively positive perceptions of business outcome versus the more negative views of business entry. However, the cross-country variations are important reminders to develop country-specific entrepreneurship programs to turn aspirations into successful ventures. Future research will explore potential gender differences in push-and-pull factors in business creation. #ujamaa
