29th FMM Conference: Gendering Macroeconomics

Gender plays a crucial role in many macroeconomic areas, including, for example, how fiscal policy or crises generate different outcomes for men, women, and non-binary individuals, and gender inequalities have substantial macroeconomic consequences. These disparities are often deeply entwined with labor market dynamics, where gender wage gaps, gendered and racial profiling of jobs and segregation, and inequalities in the distribution of paid and unpaid work persist. Such inequalities are further compounded by the systemic undervaluation of unpaid labor as well as paid care work, disproportionately carried out by women. Addressing these imbalances requires policies, which aim to close gender gaps and promote inclusive development. Equally critical is examining the intersection of globalization, climate change and gender, revealing how trade, climate conditions, and financial flows reshape inequalities in the Global South and North. Therefore, this year's FMM conference focuses on the interactions between gender and macroeconomics.
