Promoting gender-responsive trade policy in the LDCs
Overview
In trade, women often do not benefit from the same opportunities as men, and trade policies designed without taking into account gender-specific outcomes can contribute to the widening of gender gaps. In view of this, the UNCTAD project “Promoting gender-responsive trade policy in the LDCs” funded by the Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF) builds upon previous UNCTAD work on trade and gender and intends to build capacities in LDCs to mainstream gender in trade policy. The project involved the delivery of an UNCTAD teaching package on trade and gender, which included two new teaching modules, one devoted to present the linkages between trade and gender; and the other to showcase trade and gender in the context of the LDCs elaborated in this project’s framework. The project started in May 2020, and covered two courses in 2021 and two in 2022, from which one of each was in English and the other one in French. The project ended in 2022, and an independent external evaluation was conducted in the first quarter of 2023.Report Details
