Synopsis

Participants

Understanding gender equality clearly requires a cross-disciplinary approach, a variety of theoretical perspectives and a range of methodological expertise. As such, the Network draws together experts from sociology, psychology, economics, demography, geography, social policy, management and law. The participants in each project are internationally renowned authorities in their field and have well-established links with a wide-range of research users at both governmental and non-governmental levels.
