Introduction
Gender Inequalities in Pakistan women are– Less fed – Low health status– Less educated– Less mobile– Located in low paid jobs– Wage rate is low – Market work under estimated– Household work is completely ignored– Over loaded by Work

Trade Liberalization and Gender Effects
– Change in structure of employment and prices
• Time Allocation
• Consumption
• Incidence of poverty- time, capability, income

ObjectiveThe objective of the present study is to
measure gender dimensions of effects of Trade Liberalization in Pakistan using a comprehensive frame work that takes into account:
– Market work, household work, leisure
– Men and Women Labour
– Consumption of men and women
Measure effects using gender based poverty indicators

Development of Gender Aware CGE
1. Production – Integrate market and non-market sectors
2. Labour by gender
3. Rigidities
4. Consumption by Gender
5. Poverty Indicators by Gender

DATAConstruction of Gender SAM
1. Traditional SAM-based on market economy
2. Integration of Market Economy and Household Economy
3. Female Participation Adjusted with new data
4. SNA Classification is used to Categorize market, household, and leisure
5. Evaluation of Non Market Work—Opportunity cost of labor
![Page 9: Modeling Gender Effects of Pakistan’s Trade Liberalization](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56814839550346895db557d0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

AssumptionsAll activities are separable
Minimum time required for self care is 10Hours/d
Rest of the hours/d are distributed between Market, Household and Leisure activities
Households Produced Goods are consumed by Households themselves
![Page 10: Modeling Gender Effects of Pakistan’s Trade Liberalization](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56814839550346895db557d0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
Structure of SAM-1990 Market Sector (20)—Agriculture (5) , Industry ( 9)
Services ( 7)
Non Market Sectors(18)— Nine categories of households are identified with nine social reproduction sectors and nine leisure sectors
Factors of Production—Labor (8)—Grouped by Gender and education
—Capital By Sector
Households(9)—4 Urban by education level of hh and 5 Rural by Gender and then male head hh by employment status.

Salient Features of Gender SAM
1. It makes invisibility of women's household work visible.
2. Hidden market work: Improved female participation- female participation in the market is over 50 % instead of 12%
3. Female labour increases from 3.1 million (OLD) to about 15 million

Structure of Demand• Inequality in Consumption by Region
• Rural households (70%)—Consumption 52%.
• Urban households (30%)—Consumption 48 %.
• Household and Intermediate consumption account for over 85.4% of total demand
• Exports—6.6 %
• Investment—8 %

Intra Households Allocation of Resources
Significant Difference - food, clothing, education and health consumption of men and women. Other commodities are like public goods which are consumed by men and women equally, i.e., housing, sanitation facilities and utilities such as water, electricity, and gas etc.

Cont…
• It is assumed that non market sectors, leisure and reproduction, behaves like market sectors.
• Household consume all goods produced social reproduction and leisure
• Price of non market goods is the opportunity cost of labor used in these activities.
• Market rigidities are introduced by keeping low elasticities of substitution
![Page 22: Modeling Gender Effects of Pakistan’s Trade Liberalization](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56814839550346895db557d0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Other Features of the MODEL• Goods with same sectoral classification are different in
qualities for domestic markets and foreign markets.
• Imports and domestically produced goods are imperfect substitutes.
• CES and CET functions describe substitution and transformation possibilities reflecting empirical realities, respectively, for the above two functions.
• Model is calibrated to SAM data using parameters estimated from SAM and econometrically estimated elasticities.
• Model is solved using GAMS software.

Closure
CAB and Nominal exchange rate are constant and real exchange rate adjust to keep the balance.
Government consumption and Investment are kept fixed in real term for welfare and poverty analysis.
Savings equal Investment

Conclusion• Revenue Neutral Trade Liberalization • benefit more to women by increasing
•Market Employment of unskilled worker •Wage income of women more than menHarmful as •Division of labor remains unequal and
Women becomes more time poorTrade Liberalization, Poverty and Welfare
•Head Count Ratio Reduces at the national level increases in rural, decreases in urban area
– Trade Liberalization and Welfare •Welfare improves when measured at
consumption level of market goods•Deteriorate- with reduction in consumption
of market and non market goods

35
ConclusionTL and Poor
– Increase Work Load on women relative to Men– Deteriorate capabilities—FLR > MLR– Increase income poverty among women relative to men– Increase time poverty by reducing leisure time– Welfare improves - Consumption of market goods only– Welfare deteriorate - consumption of both market and
non-market goods
TL and Rich
– TL is Gender Neutral for Rich Households – Remittances neutralize negative effects of trade
liberalization– Welfare Improves with consumption of market goods– Welfare does not change with total consumption (market and non market goods)—work load increases and leisure reduces)

Policy Implications
• Complementary Policies
• Reduce Tax on basic need
• Transfer payments
• Poverty Targeted Program
• Public Investment in Social Sector
• Migration – Remittance
• Household Responsibility must be share by men
