Abstract: The study provides an evidence-based, gender-lens analysis of both hard and soft infrastructure gaps and safety related challenges that combine with existing socio-cultural barriers to constrain women and perpetuate a challenging environment for them at the land ports in India. In tandem, the report recommends targeted gender mainstreaming actions to make the land port environment and operations gender responsive. While prepared with the particular objective of making India’s land ports gender friendly, the report can also serve as a useful reference guide for other agencies involved in trade facilitation in adopting a gender mainstreaming approach, both within India as well as in other developing countries.
