The intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain is revolutionizing lifelong learning systems, particularly in the domain of women’s empowerment and skill development. This review paper builds upon foundational work such as Personalizing AI Education and Empowering Women Through AI, extending the discourse by introducing a secure, decentralized, and verifiable framework tailored to support continuous learning among women. The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the urgency for resilient digital learning platforms, especially those that can adapt to shifting economic demands while ensuring credibility and personalization. This review surveys existing AI-powered educational platforms, highlighting their strengths and limitations in fostering inclusive growth. It further explores how blockchain integration enhances trust, ownership, and certification of learning outcomes, thereby reducing barriers often faced by women in accessing and proving competencies. Key focus areas include micro-credentialing, decentralized identity management, smart contracts for skill assessment, and incentive-driven learning models. The paper synthesizes recent literature (2019–2024) across AI in education, blockchain in credentialing, and gender-focused digital inclusion strategies. It critically evaluates frameworks deployed globally and proposes a conceptual model for a Blockchain-Enabled AI Learning Ecosystem (BAILE) that prioritizes scalability, security, and inclusivity. By aligning technological advancement with social equity goals, this paper envisions a future where women across socio-economic strata can seamlessly access, engage with, and benefit from lifelong learning pathways.
