Women's empowerment refers to their ability to make decisions in social, economic, and political affairs. It is a multifaceted concept that incorporates a wide range of factors. Women have always been more active in waste management, and they typically work for no pay. The waste management program in Bangladesh has a systematic approach, focusing on household waste creation and separation as well as collection, transportation, and disposal or recycling/reuse, with women playing a crucial part. This initiative combines the efforts of women to establish themselves as entrepreneurs with the participation of municipalities. This review paper aims to look into women's experiences with self-motivation through household solid waste management programs, as well as the factors that influence their participation in 5R-based solid waste management (reusing, reducing, recycling, repurposing, and recovery) programs at the household level. This article proposes a new idea for implementing and a better understanding of women's involvement in 5R-based household solid waste management (HSWM) and their participation as entrepreneurs to generate empowerment in Bangladesh.
