This dissertation explores the social entrepreneurial work of local women in Zanzibar, Tanzania and how their social innovations address social problems and influence community sustainability. Through a qualitative interview and participant observation approach, readers learn about local women's social entrepreneurial ventures in two Zanzibar regions; the rural area of Jambiani and urban area of Stone Town. The social entrepreneurial ventures explored include initiatives in providing girl's education, disability services, expanding the arts, and using natural resources for food production, seaweed farming and handicraft-making. The Participatory Social Learning Theory is utilized to explore social entrepreneurial ventures through the frameworks' comprehensive development lens of institutional support, human resources, natural and human-made resources, technological availability and investment capital. This research study provides a social work perspective about a field of inquiry that is traditionally centralized in business models and development scholarship. The study concludes by offering implications for social work practice and research in addition to public policy implications for local development in the area of community sustainability and poverty alleviation.
