Breaking Stereotypes When Choosing Educational Work - Free lecture at Scandinavia House.

U.N. agencies, governments, academia, and civil society have increasingly in recent years stressed the need to fight obstacles for gender equality in education and work life. This seminar addresses the range of different challenges and obstacles that still remain in the Nordic countries for gender equality within education and work life. The main focus will be on the fact that choices of young people are still very gender divided at all levels of education. Experts in the field of social and educational research will discuss challenges and possible measures to influence changes in gender-segregated work life and education.

The Expert Seminar has been arranged by the Nordic Council of Ministers.
