This study aims to analyze the effects of promoting women's entrepreneurship on the migration of enterprises created by women from the informal sector to the formal sector. In order to achieve women's empowerment, Côte d'Ivoire has placed the promotion of women's entrepreneurship at the heart of its development strategies. On the one hand, the literature review found that the promotion of women's entrepreneurship is hampered by the absence of an integrated communication strategy that serves as a compass for the government's promotional activities in synergy with those of other stakeholders. On the other hand, the promotion of women's entrepreneurship stumbles on structural, socio-cultural and behavioral barriers. At first, the structural barriers are materialized by the low access of women to the financial resources needed to start and consolidate the activities they undertake because of the high rate of poverty in Côte d'Ivoire. In a second, the socio-cultural analysis reveals that the structure of social gender roles encloses women in their function of social reproduction. The wife, wife and mother ensure the functioning of domestic life. Finally, in terms of behavior, women tend to self-exclude from entrepreneurship because they feel they do not have the skills to create and run a business. This negative self-image helps build and reinforce negative perception of one's abilities to drive a formal entrepreneurial project.
