International trade policy: A blessing or a curse for women?
Trade Topics
Trade Policy
In this chapter, the authors build on the conceptual understanding of the intersection between trade policies and women in developing economies by first clarifying the key points of discussion on whether trade policies help or harm women's interests in the context of development and then zooming into the current policies and institutions at multilateral, regional, and bilateral levels to assess whether they are sufficiently placed to help women address the barriers that impede their access to international trade.
