In the ten years leading up to 2013, quinoa prices nearly tripled on the back of skyrocketing international demand for the latest 'superfood'. The grain had traditionally been cultivated in the high Andean plateau, principally for household consumption. But as prices rose, farmers' incentive to sell it as a cash crop grew.
- Assured
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
International consumers can rest assured that their quinoa purchases have benefited some of Latin America's poorest people, together with their families.

- More
- |

Large companies everywhere tend to be more productive than small ones. But the gap in productivity is far wider in developing countries.
- Distributed
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Improving SME productivity translates into more and better paying jobs, distributed across less fortunate sections of the economy.
- Markets
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In landlocked developing countries, geographical barriers to markets are unnecessarily accompanied by virtual ones: their e-connectivity rates are among the world's lowest.
- Negative
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Everything we produce and consume has an impact on the environment, on social fabrics, and on the economy. This impact can be positive or negative and, frequently, some combination of the two.
- Growth
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Sustainable production and consumption matter immensely to the people I meet every day as head of the International Trade Centre, which works with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to help them boost growth and job creation by improving their competitiveness and connecting to international markets.
- Considerable

Entrepreneurship is one of the most important drivers for job creation. Moreover, social entrepreneurship offers not only a path for young people to transform their own lives, but also a way to empower others.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Full social and political engagement is impossible without economic empowerment, a point that is as true for women as it is for young people of either gender.
- Batter
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Without action to de-carbonize our economies, unchecked climate change threatens to batter lives and economies around the world, hitting the poorest people hardest.
- Finance
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Entrepreneurs - both women and men - need equal and fair access to finance - to create new businesses, to reach to new markets, and to adapt to climate change.
- Farmers
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Companies that operate across borders have the expertise SMEs need. Who better to help smallholder farmers navigate complex sustainability standards than the companies who demand - or set - them?

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When the International Trade Centre, the agency I head, works with German electronics giant Bosch to help Kenyan food processing companies boost their productivity and export competitiveness, we may well be creating future customers for Bosch washing machines.

Most people - including business leaders - want a healthy future for their children.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In my experience, what is often missing between intent and action is the knowledge and the means to actually change the way we do business or make consumer decisions.
- More

Consumers need more insight into the goods and services they purchase. Businesses need to produce those goods and services more sustainably.
- Help

- Explicitly
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Around the world, it is much more difficult for women than for men to run a successful business. Even when laws are not explicitly biased against them, companies owned and operated by women often face discrimination every step of the way, from obtaining finance to finding customers.
- Job
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In my job, as head of the International Trade Centre, I have the privilege to meet entrepreneurs from across the world almost on a daily basis.

- Enable
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
What exactly is trade facilitation? In a nutshell, it is an effort to enable global trade by reducing red tape and streamline customs. In even simpler words: making it easier for companies to trade across borders.
- Bigger
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
For Latin American countries seeking to play a bigger role in global trade, effectively implementing trade-facilitating reforms could be an important tool in their toolkits.

Latin Americans are all too familiar with the boom and bust cycles associated with economic populism.
- Equitable
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The populists are right in one key area: voters want jobs and equitable growth, and can hardly be faulted for that. The challenge is to find a more inclusive growth trajectory that can be sustained economically, ecologically, and politically.
- Fail
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Economic policy that adheres to the tenets of orthodoxy while failing to deliver for large sections of society is doomed to fail.

- Business
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Policy and business elites did not speak frankly about the unequal distribution of benefits from trade and failed to adequately accompany market-opening with good domestic policies to equip displaced workers to upskill, adjust, and share in the new opportunities being created.
- Angry
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If governments start to go it alone on trade, it will become harder, not easier, to generate the jobs and rising incomes that angry electorates want.
- Fiscally
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In a climate where governments are limited in what they can spend, trade and investment offer a path to fiscally responsible growth.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Trade and investment are good for innovation - open economies allow new ideas and technologies to diffuse more quickly from wherever they are created.
- Only
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Look at a map of the world: the countries which do not trade much, or which trade only in oil and gas, tend to be in regions which suffer the most social and political instability.
- Investment
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think that when voters react negatively to trade and investment, they are really expressing their angst about the pace of technological change.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Power
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Ever since the first power looms put weavers out of work in the late 18th century, technology has increased productivity but threatened jobs for humans.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The factory work that lifted millions out of poverty in places like China and Vietnam probably did cost some workers in North Carolina and Wallonia their jobs.
- Economic Theory
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The fact is that during the post-1989 heyday of globalization optimism, political and business elites did not think enough about the prospect - plainly predicted in economic theory - that trade would harm some people even while leaving society as a whole better off. The result was overpromised benefits and inadequate adjustment plans.
- Just
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Africans don't just need more jobs: they need better jobs.
- Growth
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Growth without diversification, technological improvement, and increased productivity is easily reversed: all it takes is a dip in commodity prices.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Exporting firms are more productive and pay higher wages than their domestically focused counterparts, especially in places like Sub-Saharan Africa. If firms manage to thrive in world markets, they tend to increase their productivity even more.
- Business
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Responsive governments committed to improving the broader trade facilitation and business environment can help companies of all sizes by improving infrastructure: roads, transportation, ports, information and communication technology, and electricity.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Japan has huge potential in women - potential, especially in the area of the economy, that Japan is not using fully.

You only have a problem when you admit you have a problem.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Our key objective is to remove obstacles to trade.
- Government
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We survey companies and ask them what the barriers to export and import are. Once we map these barriers, we sit down with the companies on one side and the government and regulatory agencies on the other and help them identify obstacles to trade and what has to be done to tackle them.
- Defend
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

African pressure has led the E.U. to rethink part of its agricultural subsidy programme.
- Eyes
- |

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There are bridges that we have built not only between individual companies but also between associations. This will keep business and investments flowing.
- Problems
- |

- Nov 07, 2020
Empowering women with greater income opportunities will lift societies at a much faster rate.

It has been proven through studies by the World Bank and others that companies participating in international trade are more competitive.
- More
- |

The 'SheTrades' programme aims to connect one million women entrepreneurs to markets by 2020 with a campaign, a focussed networking app, and a range of international and national information resources.

Women are the half of the engine of our societies; they are half of the engines of our economies.
- Justice
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Governments everywhere have ministries dedicated to women's affairs. I know of only one with a Ministry for Women Empowerment: Indonesia. Charged with the 'realization of gender equality and justice' together with children's well-being, the ministry frames gender equality as a matter of justice.
- Economic
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The social and legal discrimination that relegates hundreds of women to subordinate or marginal economic roles has a huge aggregate cost.
- Health
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When women are paid for their work and have control over how the money gets spent, they invest much more of their income than men do in their families' education and health.
- Enable
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Trade and investment promotion organizations are crucial partners in ITC's work to enable SMEs to internationalize. They sustain and multiply the impact of trade-related technical support and allow SMEs to function with confidence in any location.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Job
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Gender-based job restrictions tend to be associated with wider wage gaps and lower employment rates for women. And where girls' future earning potential is limited, families may choose to send their brothers to school instead.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Laws matter. With effective implementation and enforcement, good laws can nudge forward positive changes in social and cultural mores.
- Economic Opportunity
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Governments can't credibly claim to be concerned about stagnant growth and ageing workforces unless they are actively seeking to empower women economically. One way they can speed up progress towards gender-equal economic opportunity is to change laws that are holding women back.
- Business Opportunities
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Technology is making it easier for women to connect to business opportunities around the world. Legal obstacles must not be allowed to stand in their way. That's not just because it's economically smart. It's because discrimination shouldn't be the law.
