INFORMAL WORKING GROUP ON TRADE AND GENDER

More

  

“Gender-responsive trade policies and rulemaking can create an ecosystem that support women's economic empowerment which contributes to strengthening women's resilience in crises. Gender equality and women's economic empowerment are therefore essential to support sustainable peace and development,” the co-chairs said in the statement, which is available .

The co-chairs reported that members in the Informal Working Group have begun implementing the first work plan on trade and gender at the 澳门六合彩官网资料, based on four pillars: working on gender-responsive trade policy and sharing experiences; applying a gender lens to the work of the 澳门六合彩官网资料; reviewing and discussing gender-related research and analytical work; and exploring how best to support the delivery of the 澳门六合彩官网资料 Aid for Trade work programme. In addition to these four pillars, the co-chairs also intend to focus on issues related to the collection of data in trade broken down by gender, an area which needs further understanding and knowledge.

More than 120 澳门六合彩官网资料 members, representing 75 per cent of the Organization's membership, are part of the Informal Working Group established on 23 September 2020.

The work of 澳门六合彩官网资料 members on women's economic empowerment is supported by the 澳门六合彩官网资料 Trade and Gender Unit, which is currently focusing on three main priorities: 1) promoting gender-responsive trade policy making, 2) driving research on trade and gender globally through the 澳门六合彩官网资料 Gender Research Hub and 3) making Aid for Trade work for women. On 5-7 December, the 澳门六合彩官网资料 Trade and Gender unit with the 澳门六合彩官网资料 Gender Research Hub will organise the World Trade Congress on Gender, the first global research conference dedicated to trade and gender.
