OWIT UK- WEIFORWARD CO-HOSTED WTO PF21 Joint Working Session: Building resilience to bridge trade gaps through digital transformation

Building resilience to bridge trade gaps through digital transformation

The Organisation of Women in International Trade, UK Chapter (OWIT UK) and Women’s Economic Imperative (WEIForward) are hosting this joint working session at the WTO Public Forum 2021. The session will look at ways in which government and private enterprise can collaborate to ensure the broadest range of opportunities remain open to all women to acquire digital skills, build resilience and ensure sustainable growth in international trade following the disruptions and further inequalities in supply chains caused by the pandemic. Outcomes from the session will suggest possible collaborative areas such as digital transformation and solutions which can then be implemented and shared as best practice globally
