Abstract

This study seeks to investigate Entrepreneurial Competencies in Home Economics education for National Economic Development of Nigeria with a view to ascertain the specific role the Entrepreneurship component of Home Economics education plays in standard of living of the graduates and National economic development. The study adopted a systematic review approach to review over Eighty (80) empirical and quality research findings and views of several researchers on related studies from reputable international journals. This study concludes after a systematic and extant review of reputable and empirical studies of related areas that there is a direct connection between Entrepreneurial Competencies in Home Economics and Nigeria’s Economic Development. This result implies that the entrepreneurship component of Home Economics Education has contributed and is still contributing to Nigeria’s Economic Development through employment creation which contributes to the increase in GDP. The study also discovered that Home economics’ mission to improve family well-being, and national development along with its multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, context-based, and skills-based nature, makes it an ideal field for the integration of entrepreneurship knowledge. The knowledge and skills learned in home economics, including consumer education, household resource management skills, and HE-related marketable skills, provide the ideal combination to improve the sustainability of micro and small businesses. The study recommends that the Federal government creates a national policy on aggressive Entrepreneurship implementation to drastically reduce youth unemployment and crime in view of proven contributions of Entrepreneurship education to National Economic Development of Nigeria.
