Gender Economics

Gender Economics is a field of study within economics that focuses on the analysis of gender disparities and their impact on economic outcomes. It examines how gender influences economic decision-making, access to resources, labor market participation, income distribution, and overall economic growth. Gender economists seek to understand the underlying causes of these disparities, including social norms, institutional biases, and structural inequalities. The discipline also explores policy implications aimed at promoting gender equality and reducing economic disparities between genders. Through quantitative and qualitative research, Gender Economics contributes to broader discussions on development, social justice, and economic resilience by highlighting the importance of considering gender as a crucial factor in economic analysis and policymaking.
