30 years of Mercosur - Trade and gender 19/4/2021

To what extent does trade mitigate, replicate or magnify inequalities between men and women in the region? In which sectors can the presence of women make a difference in competitiveness? What are the best strategies to change the current logic that leaves a large part of women out of the benefits of integration and the exercise of their rights?

To understand the keys to the subject, which is increasingly present in Mercosur, the Foro del Sur Foundation, with the support of the Intal-BID, the ICBC Foundation, the Getulio Vargas Foundation, the Catholic University of Uruguay, the Center for Analysis and Dissemination of the Paraguayan Economy and the Training Center for Regional Integration, invited to participate in a conversation with a group of referents on the subject:
