We are running a field experiment with female entrepreneurs who have all borrowed from a microfinance organization in Punjab, Pakistan. We test whether an intervention that exposes women to successful role models, and encourages goal setting, planning and the overcoming of obstacles can foster investments in higher-return activities. Moreover, we also study whether intrahousehold dynamics and social constraints interact with this treatment by cross randomizing this intervention with the presence of the spouse. Through a phone survey we want to understand the impact of the crisis on women\u2019s businesses, time use and well-being and if there are any differential impacts due to the crisis.<\/p>\n
