- Description
- Notable progress on gender equality has been achieved in some areas. Women´s participation in the labour force has increased in most regions of the world: women´s education has also improved significantly: and there are signs of a narrowing of the wage gap between men and women in many countries (most of them industrialized). However, in most nations women are still at a disadvantage in terms of their role and position in the economic and political arenas. .Against this background, the forces of globalization, of which international trade is one of the most important channels, may bring additional challenges and opportunities. Questions arise as to how the costs and benefits of trade can be evenly distributed by gender, and whether trade rules and policies deepen, or, on the contrary, reduce existing gender inequalities. There is therefore a need to assess the impact of trade on gender equality in order to assist countries in designing appropriate strategies and policies to support the objective of gender equality in the context of an open multilateral trading system.

- Description
- This report reveals the double standards at the corporate practices that are emerging under globalisation. Globalisation and trade have drawn women in developing countries into paid work. But women workers are systematically being denied their fair share of the benefits from their labour. As part of Oxfam’s campaign to Make Trade Fair, Oxfam is joining partner organisations worldwide to demand that women working in the supply chains of some of the world’s most powerful companies get their fair share of the gains from trade.
