Engendering the trade agenda – Strategic tools Several tools may help in- corporate a gender equality perspective in trade policy design and impact assessments. The following are two potential examples: ➜ Gendered Value Chain Analyses highlight women’s and men’s economic situation and empowerment by tracing profits and benefits throughout the global value chain of production. As a targeted support of women in the Ethiopian private sector, the German Development Cooperation within the Engineer- ing Capacity Building Programme (ECBP) is conducting a gender-sensitive Value Chain Analysis in cooperation with the International Labour Organisation (ILO). ➜ Poverty and Social Impact Analysis (PSIAs) are carried out to analyze possible gendered impacts and outcomes of trade pol- icies such as export promotion strategies. For example, when applied to the Strategic Export Initiative in Uganda, a PSIA revealed that while export oriented production growth would probably lead to male-based income growth within households, there might be concurrent negative impacts on important non-income dimensions of poverty reduction. As a result, complementary measures to reverse this negative impact are needed as well. Increased trade is widely promoted as an important ingredient to stimulate growth and reduce poverty. Indeed, there is evidence that trade liberalisation re- sults in cheaper products for local consumers, crea- tion of new markets and in a rise in employment opportunities. However, these benefits are not equal- ly distributed between women and men. Women are often less able than men to take advantage of new opportunities due to the gender-specific constraints women face such as limited access to and control over resources (land and other assets, credit, information, technology), limited access to markets, social responsibility for unpaid domes- tic work, legal discrimination and discriminatory cultural norms and values. Import liberalisation results in a drop in tax revenue collected from tariffs on imported goods. If these losses are not replaced by other forms of domestic revenues, they may lead to cuts in government spending. There is evidence that poor women and girls are disproportionately affected by reduced public spending, especially in social sectors such as health and education. In addition to the different impact of trade policies on women and men as workers, consumers, producers and carers in the domestic sphere, gender relations may also determine the outcomes of trade policies. Therefore, policies and international rules governing trade relations between nations have to be analyzed and designed from a gender equality perspective.
Enhancing Women’s Access to Markets: An Overview of Donor Programs and Best ...Dr Lendy Spires
“It is necessary to take a multi-dimensional perspective on poverty reduction. This includes ‘bottom-up growth strategies’ to encourage the broad-based rise of entrepreneurial initiatives” (UNIDO 2003:9). Women are a significant economic entrepreneurial force whose contributions to local, national and global economies are far reaching.
Women produce and consume, manage businesses and households, earn income, hire labor, borrow and save, and provide a range of services for businesses and workers. Women also produce more than 80 percent of the food consumed in Sub-Saharan Africa, 50-60 percent of all staples in Asia, and generate 30 percent of all food consumed in Latin America (see Annex 2, Box 8).
Women represent an increasing proportion of the world’s waged labor force and their activity rates are rising. In Africa, Asia, and Latin America, they are over one third of the officially enumerated workforce (WISTAT 2000). Women-run businesses can be found in emerging sectors such as the production and marketing of consumer goods, commercial banking, financial services, insurance, information services, communications, and transport.
As owners of SMEs, women furnish local, national and multinational companies with ideas, technology, supplies, components, and business services (Jalbert 2000). These activities are likely to prove fundamental as developing economies transition from primarily agricultural to industrial production and become more urbanized. Furthermore, as economies liberalize and open their borders, women-owned and operated SMEs are engaging in international trade—enhancing the prominence and visibility of women entrepreneurs globally.
Understanding how women access markets as producers and wage laborers is likely to prove critical for fostering pro-poor and inclusive economic growth. Analyzing where women are in the global supply chain and documenting the resources they use and transform will provide information about how to strengthen local economies and maximize forward and backward linkages.
Finally, reducing barriers to market access and enhancing women’s productivity will necessarily benefit both economies and households. Entrepreneurship and investment influence the rate and pattern of growth, the types of forward and backward linkages that develop in an economy, the labor demanded, and the human capital investment required to meet these labor demands (Ravallion 2004; Ranis, Stewart, and Ramírez 2000). Rapid growth can contribute to poverty reduction where that growth is broad-based and inclusive (OECD 2004).

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to examine the main issues which effect the economic growth and the poverty in Bulgaria in relation with rate of human capital growth.
The assumption that in the modern world poverty isn’t a concept associated with the shortage of income is grounded. At its core the poverty is an expression of lack of opportunities for the person. The interest in it is completely understandable, because poverty is perceived as the most important social problem, in which all significant existential questions and challenges to the social sciences are focused virtually.

Over the past three decades, global trade has grown and many new exporting countries, particularly in Asia, have been incorporated into the global economy.
The Global Value Chain (GVC) literature emerged as an attempt to describe how multinational firms have integrated production activities in Asia into their global strategies and what the consequences might be for the newly-integrated economies.
The GVC analysis is a useful tool to trace the shifting patterns of global production, link geographically dispersed activities and actors within a single industry, and determine the roles they play in developed and developing countries alike.
This course provides competency sets (mind set, tool set, knowledge set, and skill set) used for analyzing and synthesizing a new value chain system in order to extend the current value chain and to promote participation and upgrading in global value chains.
The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

Global Value Chains and Women's Economic Empowerment
1. Global Value Chains
and Women’s Economic
Empowerment
Final Project - edX MOOC
- Trading for Development in the Age of Global Value Chains -
World Development Report 2020 – World Bank Group
2. Introduction
– Trade dynamics and gender equality contribute significantly to
sustainable growth in societies worldwide.
– However, evidence suggests that traditional forms of trade shaped by
globalization have had a disproportionate impact on women.
– Global Value Chains (GVCs) have changed trade in a manner which
has been more beneficial than traditional trade. One of their many
benefits has been stronger social and economic participation for
women.
– How do GVCs contribute to women’s economic empowerment? How
can its benefits be harnessed, and how to respond to enduring
challenges?
3.
4. The Impact of Traditional Trade
on Female Employment
– Trade and gender equality are key foundations for sustainable development,
job creation, and economic growth (WTO 2018).
– However, globalization has had a disproportionate impact on female
employment (OECD 2020).
– According to data, the growth of manufacturing value added per worker (or
rises in labor productivity) leads to a falling share of female employment
(UNCTAD 2016).
– The incidence of trade barriers, and tariffs and non-tariff measures, impact
women most heavily (WTO 2018).
– Women-owned or led SMEs struggle to grow, due to limited access to business
networks and market opportunities (WTO 2018).
5. The Benefits of Global Values
Chains
– In GVC trade, hyper-specialization and durable firm-to-firm
relationships allow firms to raise productivity and income.
– Those two dimensions contribute to making GVC trade far more
efficient than traditional trade in supporting growth and
countering the negative effects of trade (World Bank Group 2020).
– Therefore, nations must implement policies encouraging GVC
participation, multilateral cooperation, as well as ensuring GVC
trade benefits all dimensions of society.
– One of the most vital of such dimensions is women’s economic
empowerment.
6.
7. Contributions of Global Value
Chains to Female Employment
– Gender plays an important role in shaping outcomes of participation within
GVCs (Said-Allsopp & Tallontire 2014). As such, GVCs can be a powerful
lever for empowering women (Boyle 2016).
– The creation of jobs within GVCs has increased the participation of women in
a wide range of economic sectors and at different levels (World Economic
Forum 2018). GVC firms also tend to employ more women than non-GVC
firms (World Bank Group 2020).
– GVCs depend on hundreds of millions of female workers in many sectors,
including agri-food, garments, and personal care (WOW 2018). Furthermore,
studies have established a positive correlation between export share and
female share of employment (UNCTAD 2016).
– Therefore, empowering women in GVCs presents opportunities to create
business value and strengthen women’s rights (BSR 2016).
8. Persistent Challenges
– Data and information on women’s economic empowerment within GVCs
remain either absent or limited (WOW 2018).
– While GVCs do offer more women jobs, women are generally found in lower
value-added segments. There is still a lack of women holding higher and more
senior positions (World Bank Group 2020).
– There are persistent variations in the participation of male and female
employees in GVCs, mainly due to differences in female labor participation
across industries.
– Studies suggest that existing gender employment gaps may translate into
economy-wide gender wage gaps, exacerbating inequalities and negatively
impacting female participation across sectors (OECD 2020).
9. Recommendations
– Social and economic upgrading must involve formal equality, to allow
equal opportunity for women at all levels of value chains. (UNCTAD
2016).
– Encourage capacity building, training, support, and social provision
for women in GVCs.
– Address gender bias and gender segmentation in role assignation
(UNCTAD 2016).
– Implement trade policies with a gender responsive approach. (WTO
2018).
– Study the role of technological developments such as e-commerce
platforms and digital solutions in enabling women's participation in
trade (WTO 2018).
10. 2017 Buenos Aires
Declaration on Trade
and Women's
Economic
Empowerment
In 2017, the Buenos Aires
Declaration on Women and
Trade, which seeks to address
barriers to women’s economic
empowerment, was supported by
118 World Trade Organization
(WTO) member and observer
states at the 11th WTO Ministerial
Conference (WTO 2017).
The Declaration is a step towards
fulfilling the UN Global
Development Goals, notably the
Sustainable Development Goal to
achieve gender equality through
the empowerment of women and
girls (SDG 5) (WTO 2017).
11. Conclusion
– Global Value Chains (GVCs) play a significant role in boosting women’s
economic empowerment, notably through substantial job creation and
new opportunities for women’s active participation in the socio-economic
sphere.
– However, despite the many benefits observed, certain challenges and
limitations persist, notably with regards to a lack of data to better inform
decisions and strategies, and the persistence of gender employment gaps,
amongst others.
– Actors within business and economic sectors, as well as trade policies
formulated by governments, play a major role in harnessing the benefits
of GVC trade to women’s economic empowerment, as well as offering
solutions to respond to enduring issues and limitations.
