Abstract
<jats:p>Historical processes of the sexual division of labor have generated multiple gender gaps, putting women at a disadvantage. This is why the 2030 Agenda defined Sustainable Development Goal 5, which aims to achieve gender equality and empower women and girls, thereby promoting economic growth and sustainable development worldwide. In Mexico, the sociocultural context places the responsibility for care work on women—for children and adolescents, as well as for the elderly and the sick—in addition to domestic work. This creates multiple barriers that prevent women from starting businesses and developing as entrepreneurs. Therefore, the objective of this chapter is to generate a proposal for financing entrepreneurship that integrates the necessary elements to support the economic empowerment of women in Mexico. The results consist of the construction of a financing proposal, which considers the flexibility of financing guarantees, flexibility in interest rates, financial education schemes, as well as support networks, related to governance.</jats:p>
