Abstract

This article presents the findings of an integrative literature review (ILR) of studies conducted in a 10-year period from 2010 to 2020 covering the contribution of Black African Migrant Women (BAMW) Entrepreneurs in the host country and sustain family in the home country. Furthermore, it highlights the psychological impact of pressure to earn a living juxtaposed with the expectations of their highly skilled status. The review underscores how their intersectionality leaves them predisposed to multiple barriers and disadvantages in the labour market and entrepreneurship. Thus, making an important scholarly contribution by offering further insights on intersectional complexity, women’s entrepreneurial skills and contributions, and self-inclusion drawing from lived experiences of BAMW. Finally, the paper signposts areas for further research into BAMW’s entrepreneurial motivations and outcomes at this critical juncture in participation of women and migrants in the achievements of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
