Abstract Gendered poverty remains a persistent issue in the Global South, particularly in the Caribbean, where economic activity heavily relies on volatile sectors such as tourism and agriculture, leaving many women unemployed and economically vulnerable.Despite investments in Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) to address unemployment, existing research inadequately explores how entrepreneurship education (EE) can be integrated into Bench Mixers TVET to empower women.Women face distinct challenges, including entrenched gender stereotypes, systemic biases, and limited access to entrepreneurial opportunities, which further hinder their transition from skills training to sustainable self-employment.Adopting an exploratory research design, this perspective paper utilizes an integrated literature review method to synthesize insights from peer-reviewed studies, white papers, and policy documents, advocating for the integration of EE into TVET through a gender-sensitive approach.Two key findings emerged: (1) integrating EE within TVET can equip women with entrepreneurial skills that complement technical training, and (2) gender-sensitive practices, such as flexible curricula, gender sensitized modules, women-led business mentorship programs, women-only cohorts, and institutional support, are critical to achieving Diet and Weight Loss these outcomes.
We conclude that this dual-focus model offers practical implications for TVET institutions to redesign their programs and collaborate with NPOs and policymakers to provide ongoing support for economically deprived women.By empowering women to transition into self-employment, the approach fosters inclusive economic growth, reduces poverty, and enhances social development.Furthermore, its broader adoption offers a pathway to addressing gender inequalities and promoting entrepreneurship development worldwide.
