EU trade and investment agreements are not gender neutral and have different impact on women and men due to structural inequalities. This report calls for the collection of gender-dis aggregated data and the inclusion of the country-specific and sector-specific gender analysis in ex-ante and ex-post impact assessments of EU trade policy and agreements, better support to women-led micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises and the better use of trade and sustainable development chapters to promote and uphold gender equality.
