Type: article

Abstract: Entrepreneurship is widely regarded as a central mechanism for economic growth, job creation, and poverty reduction, yet it remains understudied in fragile and conflictaffected economies such as Afghanistan. This study examines the factors that shape the entrepreneurial intentions of final-year economics students at ten Afghan universities, focusing on the indirect pathways through which university support and family support influence entrepreneurial intention via two mediating variables: attitude toward entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial self-efficacy.
