The international trade sector in Pakistan currently employs very few women in managerial positions.  A recent USAID-funded study has shown women comprise less than 10 percent of management and 20 percent of junior staff in trade companies. The Women in Trade initiative will work to set up linkages between international firms and local universities, so that more women have opportunities to explore careers in international trade.  The USAID-funded initiative will also help companies select the best-suited male and female university graduates for training and potential future recruitment.
