  • Beschreibung: Why ‘trade and women’ issue is important? We could approach this question from the perspective of whether human capital is genderless. Does the input of human capital named ‘male’ and ‘female’ generate the same results in trade and output? Female human capital accumulation has externality, contributing to the sustainable and inclusive growth measures. International community’s approach to the issue is in line with these considerations. Why have we neglected trade and women so far?

In order to utilize female labor, it is necessary to induce active participation in the labor market by pursuing work-life balance
