يخصص مركز السياسات من أجل الجنوب الجديد حلقة برنامجه الأسبوعي "حديث الثلاثاء" للمشاركة الاقتصادية للنساء في الشرق الأوسط وشمال إفريقيا: التحديات والفرص مع السيد ة حياة الشوبكي، باحثة ومنسقة المشاريع في قسم العدالة الاجتماعية في معهد غرب اسيا وشمال افريقيا

تسهم مشاركة النساء في الأنشطة الاقتصادية في تحقيق نمو مستدام، وهي عامل رئيسي لنمو الطبقة المتوسطة. ومع ذلك، فإن عدد النساء اللاتي يعملن في منطقة الشرق الأوسط وشمال أفريقيا صغير جدا. وقد سجَّلت المنطقة ككل أدنى معدلات مشاركة النساء في القوى العاملة في العالم - 22% فقط في 2020 بالمقارنة مع 77% للرجال – كما ترتفع معدلات البطالة بصورة أكثر حدة بين صفوف النساء مقارنة بالرجال. فما هي التحديات التي تواجهها النساء في الانضمام إلى القوى العاملة، وما الذي يمكن عمله لإزالة هذه الحواجز والقيود القانونية والمالية التي تعيقهن من الوصول العادل إلى الفرص؟

    Greater female participation in the labor market and in international trade have been recognized as important drivers for economic growth and essential targets in the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, achieving both targets simultaneously will be difficult, if not impossible, in most Middle East and North African (MENA) countries without additional policies to eliminate the remarkably high levels of gender inequality in the labor market.

    We explore a new avenue that could contribute to an effective de-confinement in the context of COVID-19. This phenomenon is known as the ‘World Cup Effect’. We first define this phenomenon and highlight its existence and its possible amplifying effect with regard to the spread of the pandemic, in light of the number of infected cases recorded at the pandemic’s peak, and the duration before reaching its highest level. Based on hypothetical scenarios in terms of the initial conditions ...
