Unequal status and power dynamics in labor markets—including unequal access to economic opportunities—leave women vulnerable to harassment and violence. In keeping with the 16 Days Campaign’s focus this year on informal labor and violence, this event will explore the mechanisms available to make workplaces—formal and informal—safe for women and increase women’s participation in the economy around the world.
This event is part of a Wilson Center series held in recognition of the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence (November 25 – December 10, 2020), an international campaign to build awareness and galvanize action in the fight against violence against women and girls.
