It can also lead to job losses and a concentration of work in low-skilled employment. Given the complexity and specificity of the relationship between trade and gender, it is essential to assess the potential impact of trade policy on both women and men and to develop appropriate, evidence-based policies to ensure that trade helps to enhance opportunities for all. Research on gender equality and trade has been constrained by limited data and a lack of understanding of the connections among the economic roles that women play as workers, consumers, and decision makers. Building on new analyses and new sex-disaggregated data, this publication aims to advance the understanding of the relationship between trade and gender equality and to identify a series of opportunities through which trade can improve the lives of women. 650 0 $a International trade $x Sex differences. 650 0 $a Women $x Economic conditions. 650 0 $a Women in development. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination against women $x Economic aspects. 650 0 $a Commercial policy. 650 7 $a Women in development. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177865 650 7 $a Women $x Economic conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176665 650 7 $a Sex discrimination against women $x Economic aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114377 650 7 $a Commercial policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869569 650 7 $a Commercial policy $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352515 650 7 $a International trade $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977153 700 1 $a Churchill, Erik, $e author. 700 1 $a Winkler, Deborah, $e author. 700 1 $a Monteiro, Jose-Antonio, $e author. 700 1 $a Stolzenburg, Victor, $e author. 710 2 $a World Bank, $e sponsoring body. 710 2 $a World Trade Organization, $e sponsoring body. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526015517.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9DD66964FFE911EBB6EAFDEE22ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
