Inhabitants of refugee camps are commonly perceived as vulnerable people in hostile places with limited political and economic agency. However, camp settings can also provide the ground for a lively informal economy. This article describes the emergence of entrepreneurial and income generating activities in the Sahrawi refugee camps. It analyses how local and international policies towards income generating activities have changed in the past four decades, contributing to a better understanding of the reality of refugee entrepreneurship
