It has been noticed that these obstacles are of diverse nature . The second issue is the challenges faced by women with disabilities while taking a decision on starting their own business and in the course of running their own businesses. This part of the article also proposes some solutions that can help meet multiple tasks. Finally, based on the case study method, there are presented examples of entrepreneurl women with disabilities who have been successful and can be an example and inspiration for other women with similar problems.
