摘要

目的本研究的目的是显示农业部门的性别平等公共政策如何有助于减少劳动力市场中的性别不平等和刚果经济的多样化。设计/方法/方法可计算的一般均衡模型,已从刚果民主共和国(DRC)的SAM中适应刚果经济。研究结果表明,增加妇女土地分配和政府对农村女性家庭的现金转移的政策有助于减少劳动力市场的不平等。然而,只有增加妇女土地分配的政策才能促进经济多样化。研究局限/启示政府对农村妇女家庭的现金转移支付政策的实施使政府付出了代价。未来的研究将着眼于这一政策最有效的融资模式。此外,增加妇女土地分配的政策在刚果民主共和国是可行的,因为有大量未使用的可耕地。社会影响在国家战略发展计划关于经济多样化和转型的支柱1中,增加分配给妇女土地的政策可列入有关加强农业对经济增长和创造就业的贡献的目标。在《国家战略纲要》关于社会发展和人力资源开发的支柱3中,增加向妇女分配土地的政策以及增加政府向农村妇女家庭转移资金的政策可以列入与促进青年、妇女和脆弱群体就业有关的目标。原创性/价值据作者所知,这是刚果民主共和国的第一个此类研究,该研究强调了支持性别政策对妇女就业的影响,特别是在农业部门和刚果经济多样化方面。本研究有助于刚果民主共和国的政策导向。本研究分析的两项政策(增加对妇女的土地分配和向农村妇女的现金转移)是根据刚果民主共和国的国家战略计划选择的,该计划的第一阶段侧重于通过发展农业部门促进弱势群体的就业和经济多样化。

Pro-gender policies and the empowerment of women in the DRC
PurposeThe purpose of this study was to show how pro-gender public policies in the agricultural sectors can contribute to the reduction of gender inequalities in the labour market and the diversification of the Congolese economy.Design/methodology/approachComputable general equilibrium model that has been adapted to the Congolese economy from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)'s SAM.FindingsThe results reveal that policies of increasing women's land allocation and government cash transfers to rural female households contribute to the reduction of inequalities in the labour market. However, only the policy of increasing women’s land allocation improves economic diversification.Research limitations/implicationsThe implementation of the policy of government cash transfers to rural women's households comes at a cost to the government. Future studies to look at the most effective mode of financing for this policy. Moreover, the policy of increasing women's land allocation is feasible in the DRC as there is a lot of unused arable land available.Social implicationsIn Pillar 1 of the National Strategic Development Plan (PNSD) on Economic Diversification and Transformation, the policy of increasing land allocation to women could be added to the objectives related to strengthening the contribution of agriculture to economic growth and employment creation. In Pillar 3 of the PNSD on Social Development and Human Resource Development, the policy of increasing land allocation to women as well as the policy of increasing government transfers to female rural households could be added to the objectives related to the promotion of employment of youth, women and vulnerable groups.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study of its kind for the DRC, which highlights the impact of pro-gender policies on women's employment, particularly in the agricultural sectors and in the diversification of the Congolese economy. This study contributes to policy orientation in DRC. The two policies (increasing land allocation to women and cash transfers to rural women) analysed in this study were chosen in light of the DRC's National Strategic Plan, the first phase of which focuses on promoting employment for vulnerable groups and economic diversification through the development of agricultural sectors.
