Systemstic Literature Analysis of Educational Barriers, Opportunities, and Innovation in Science, Technology, and Innovation: The Case of Potential Female Entrepreneurs in South Africa
Abstract
Using 73 articles related to educational barriers, opportunities, and prospects in science, technology, and innovation (STI) for potential female entrepreneurs in South Africa, this paper addresses anti-social justice practices disrupting STI advancement among these women. Results indicated that cultural and social barriers, financial barriers, lack of role models, and stereotypes and biases block women's technological and economic advancement. However, cultural and social barriers present opportunities for cross-cultural education and diversity training. Financial barriers can spur innovation in affordable products and services. The lack of role models highlights the need for mentorship programs. Stereotypes and biases can be countered with awareness-raising and diversity initiatives. The paper recommended implementing social justice opportunities and prospects in current policies to enhance women's advancement in STI fields. These efforts create a more inclusive and supportive environment, promoting gender equality and fostering women's technological and economic progress.
