There is no shortage of literature surrounding academic mothers and the stark differences between men and women in academia in terms of promotion rates, salary, and workload, amongst other factors . Research highlights that there has only been a marginal improvement for academic mothers in recent decades . This is not only detrimental at an individual level, but also represents lost potential economic and social value at an institutional level. As key stakeholders, mothers need a voice and a role in shaping policy and practice within academia.

In response to calls encouraging universities to better support mother academics, the Making Motherhood Work project aims to support the professional development of academic mothers at the ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ by exploring the challenges and barriers they face when juggling their caring responsibilities and developing their careers within the institution.

Funded by the ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ's Institutional Funding for Research Culture Award, Cultures of Collaborative Research (Wellcome Trust).

The proposed project, MUSED, is designed to build a partnership between the Entrepreneurship Centre at the Malawi University of Business and Applied Sciences (MUBAS) and the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship (HCE), SBS, to explore and develop opportunities for future collaboration. Specifically, the project has three stages – Define, Engage, Develop – and focused on three key areas – Education, Research and Practice. Through early engagement to define needs, priorities and interests (for both partners), a collaboration plan will be developed to define and support future activities and enable the development of funding proposals. The enclosed proposed project would also support in person engagement during the University’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations, to further evidence Strathclyde’s commitment to Malawi and our international partnerships.

Entrepreneurship has emerged as an endogenous tool for social & economic value generation with women entrepreneurs commonly identified as agents of change: instrumental in undertaking action in pursuit of positive outcomes. Yet, for many groups – including marginalised & disadvantaged women – the rules of the (entrepreneurial/societal) game define & sustain their oppression relative to other groups1 & drive inequality of entrepreneurial opportunity2. As a result, across disparate contexts, intermediaries commonly exist to enable entrepreneurship for such communities. Of these, some specifically work to address the constraining effects of structure and enable agency. The project explores the enacted role of intermediaries to understand the outcome of interventions at individual (micro) - intergenerational and community/structural levels (meso/ macro). Urban Kathmandu has been selected as the context for the research due to the complex nature of – and incongruence between – (in)formal structures that define women’s roles. Employing an inductive qualitative approach (individual interviews with policymakers (~n=2), intermediaries (~n=6) and entrepreneurs (~n=12)), the project will enable an understanding of ‘good practice’ in intermediary programme/ process design to challenge structure and enable agency; make contributions to national narratives on inclusive development; support the development of future funding bids; and expand the Nepal Social Impact Research Group.
