Gender, trade and public procurement policy : Kenya, India, Australia, Jamaica
Abstract
This publication explores the interconnectedness of gender, trade and public procurement in four steps :
-an exploration of the linkages between public procurement and trade, with specific reference to domestic, regional
and global dimensions of trade;
-a discussion around the extent to which public procurement policies are gender equitable;
-a consideration of the importance of integrating gender considerations into public procurement and trade policy.
-Lastly, the publication presents four case studies on public procurement policy and practices taken from Commonwealth countries, with a particular emphasis on emerging gender-specific dimensions.
