Summary of “Closing the gender gap: identifying women’s exporting success using firm-level data for Canada”, a presentation at the WTO World Trade Congress on Gender

Canada’s inclusive approach to trade recognizes that trade is not gender neutral. Because women and men—both as entrepreneurs or workers—are not equally represented in all sectors of the economy, international trade has different effects on sectors and therefore on gender. Understanding these different gender impacts of trade is paramount in guiding policy decisions aimed at creating opportunities for all groups of the society to benefit from trade.
