Digital, Development and Decent Work: How Should International Players Support Digital Entrepreneurs in Kenya to Create Jobs and Deliver on SDG 8? /Emma Parrott. - 1 electronic resource (80 pages)

Over a decade has passed since the term "Africa Rising" was coined, responding to a period of economic growth in which six of the ten fastest-growing economies in the world were African, powered by young populations, entrepreneurship, and growing use of technologies. With the global adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, entrepreneurship and technological innovation formally became part of the development toolkit. Governments, investors and donors have enthusiastically backed African digital entrepreneurship, with Kenya considered a significant African technology player. However, the relationship between economic growth, digital entrepreneurialism and delivery of the SDGs remains relatively under researched. Separating the narratives of "Africa Rising" from the realities of building digital businesses is critical to informing practical guidance for backing digital entrepreneurs - particularly in relation to the urgent task of creating decent work for Kenya's fast-growing population. This study takes a constructivist approach, prioritising the views of Kenyan digital entrepreneurs through semi-structured interviews to qualitatively explore how they think about building a job-creating business in Nairobi. The findings contribute to the growing field of bottom-up development approaches to inform recommendations for international players looking to support Kenyan digital entrepreneurs in the delivery of SDG 8: "sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all".

520 $a Passou mais de uma decada desde que o termo "Africa Rising" foi cunhado, respondendo a um periodo de crescimento economico em que seis das dez economias com crescimento mais rapido no mundo eram africanas, impulsionadas por populacoes jovens, empreendedorismo e utilizacao crescente de tecnologias. Com a adocao global dos Objectivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentavel (ODS) em 2015, o empreendedorismo e a inovacao tecnologica passaram formalmente a fazer parte do conjunto de ferramentas de desenvolvimento. Os governos, os investidores e os doadores tem apoiado entusiasticamente o empreendedorismo digital africano, sendo o Quenia considerado um importante interveniente tecnologico africano. No entanto, a relacao entre o crescimento economico, o empreendedorismo digital e a concretizacao dos ODS continua relativamente pouco estudada. Separar as narrativas da "Africa Rising" das realidades da construcao de empresas digitais e fundamental para informar orientacoes praticas para apoiar os empresarios digitais - particularmente em relacao a tarefa urgente de criar trabalho digno para a populacao em rapido crescimento do Quenia. Este estudo adopta uma abordagem construtivista, dando prioridade aos pontos de vista dos empresarios digitais quenianos atraves de entrevistas semi-estruturadas para explorar qualitativamente a forma como pensam sobre a criacao de uma empresa geradora de emprego em Nairobi. As conclusoes contribuem para o crescente campo das abordagens de desenvolvimento da base para o topo, para informar as recomendacoes dos intervenientes internacionais que procuram apoiar os empresarios digitais quenianos na concretizacao do ODS 8: "crescimento economico sustentado, inclusivo e sustentavel, emprego pleno e produtivo e trabalho digno para todos".
