The Research Centre for Gender Equality (KETHI) aims to advance gender equality in Greece through research, projects, and policy work. Greece has a significant gender economic gap, with high female unemployment and a wage gap between men and women. To help close this gap, Greece has implemented some policies around quotas for women in job training programs and supporting women's career advancement. However, challenges remain like traditional gender roles, lack of childcare, and segregation of male- and female-dominated professions. KETHI hopes its involvement in the G4G project will help Greece further through experience sharing with other European countries.

B. Costantini Ferpa - eSangathan International Conference
FERPA is the European Federation of Retired and Elderly People, which advocates for policies that promote social security, healthcare, and inclusion for retired and elderly citizens. It lobbies the European Union and national governments on these issues.
The EU has prioritized active aging policies to increase employment among elderly workers. This includes goals to raise the employment rate of those aged 55-64 to 50% by 2010 and gradually increase the average retirement age by 5 years.
National governments and social partners are implementing initiatives to shift from a culture of early retirement to delayed and more gradual retirement, through subsidies for employers, training programs, flexible work arrangements, and awareness campaigns on non-discrimination of older workers.
summary_forum[1] (1)
The second European Forum on Demography discussed developments in active aging and family policies in the EU. Over two days, six workshops were held on these themes and on how member states are responding to demographic challenges. Participants focused on issues like increasing the number of people in the workforce for longer, improving work-life balance, reforming education and promoting lifelong learning, reforming pensions, voluntary work, and immigrant integration and family support. The main issue was the need for a better work-life balance to help families. Examples from Germany of funding childcare for employees was discussed. Efforts are needed to improve fertility rates and women's participation in the labor market. The forum also discussed employment for older workers and challenges like lower qualifications and discrimination

Introduction to Irish Politics - Lecture Seven: changing Face of Irish Politics
This document discusses the impact of austerity measures in Ireland and rising inequality. It notes that despite some progress, poverty and income inequality have increased since 2008. Long-term unemployment has had huge social and psychological impacts. Women have been disproportionately affected by austerity, bearing the brunt of cuts to public services and shouldering most of the unpaid care work. Many state agencies focused on equality and social justice have had their budgets cut or been closed down entirely since the late 2000s.

Ten years with the Common Basic Principles on integration - what next?European Economic and Social Committee - SOC Section
This document discusses integration in Germany and Europe. It begins with an overview of the Common Basic Principles on Integration in the EU that were established 10 years ago. It then discusses key topics relating to integration such as socioeconomic, cultural, and legal dimensions. Several principles are explained in more detail, including the importance of non-discrimination, mutual accommodation, employment, language skills, education, diversity of cultures, participation in policymaking, and developing goals and evaluation mechanisms. Statistics are provided on immigration trends and the diversity of populations. The role of different actors in integration is addressed, as well as envisioning what integration and European society may look like in the future.South african welfare state and the demographic dividend's window of opportunity
In this paper, I analysed the main characteristics of the South African Welfare State in terms of inputs and outputs of the key policies usually identified by the literature to be useful to exploit a demographic dividend. In particular, I focused on the state of the labour market, the social assistance policies and the education and healthcare systems. To do this I studied some quantitative indicators of both inputs and outputs and I reported the qualitative analysis of some other articles of these individuals sectors. The conclusion is that, despite some important progress made by the democratic governments, there are many improvements needed to create a consistent and inclusive growth.

Social Policy Responses
This document discusses social policy responses to financial crises in small states. It outlines that social policy involves redistribution, production, reproduction and protection working with economic policy. It recommends building social objectives into economic planning rather than treating social policy as secondary. The document also discusses using a global jobs pact to protect employment, strengthen social protection systems, and promote social dialogue in recovering from the crisis. It provides examples from Mauritius of stimulus packages to save jobs and infrastructure investment. Finally, it argues universal social security is possible and important for small states.
Yuri Kazepov
The document discusses social assistance in Belgium within a European context. It provides an overview of the development of minimum income policies across Europe, focusing on increasing importance of social assistance coupled with activation measures. It then examines the key features of Belgium's droit à l’integration sociale (DIS) law, including its emphasis on individualized insertion projects and equal rights for foreigners. Some criticisms are noted, such as lack of resources to fully implement insertion projects and questions around definitions of concepts like "suitable" jobs.
The case for a maternity protection social insurance scheme in zimbabwe a t...
Maternity protection has gained salience in the last few
decades as women of child-bearing age are increasingly joining
the labour market. Policies that ensure maternity protection
schemes that include paid maternity leave are important in
safeguarding the health and livelihood of women and children.
Research-based evidence generally suggests that maternity
protection is associated with higher rates of breastfeeding and
vaccinations in low and middle income countries. Longer paid
maternity leave may reduce infant and maternal mortality. With
more and more women of child-bearing age entering the
workforce, governments it is incumbent for governments to
adapt policies that guarantee that employed mothers and their
families are able to provide essential care during pregnancy,
delivery and lactation, without losing income and employment
opportunities. Inadequate maternity protection undermines
maternal and infant health care, thereby forcing families into
catastrophic and impoverishing healthcare expenditure.
Manifestly, more effort is needed to bridge the gap between
international aspirations for maternity protection, as reflected in
the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the
International Labour Organisation’s Decent Work Agenda and
the poignant realities in low income countries. Zimbabwe, like
most developing countries does not have a maternity protection
social insurance scheme for working women, in spite of its
critical importance to the well-being of women and children as
well as to social and economic development. This paper, thus,
endeavours to present robust arguments for the development
and introduction of a maternity protection scheme in Zimbabwe,
while acknowledging that currently the country offers
substantial maternity protection through constitutional and
legislative provisions that enjoin the state and employers to
ensure that there is a considerable measure of maternity
protection. Although the constitutional and legislative provisions
provide a significant foundation for maternity protection policies
and programmes, they are not adequate as they do not
sufficiently address the issue address of maternal and child
healthcare and cash benefits to cater the costs attendant to
maternity.
powerpoint presentation
This presentation discusses child labor, defining it as work done by children under 15 that harms their development or access to education. It classifies child labor into rural and urban categories and by sex. The main causes of child labor are identified as poverty, unemployment, caste discrimination, lack of parental education, population growth, and social background. Suggestions to address the issue include providing compulsory education, eradicating poverty, creating social and economic awareness, and strict government laws against child labor along with compulsory education and increasing family income.
Chapture 4 Towards an Enabling Macroeconomic Environment
This document discusses how current macroeconomic policies can constrain progress toward gender equality in three key ways:
1. Macroeconomic policies narrowly focus on goals like GDP growth and inflation without considering social outcomes or distribution, failing to address structural disadvantages faced by women.
2. Insufficient focus on employment creation means progress in addressing women's socioeconomic disadvantages in the labor market is limited.
3. Restrictive macroeconomic choices mean there are insufficient resources to sustainably finance social policies that support gender equality or ensure spending and taxation have positive distributional impacts.
The document argues macroeconomic policy needs to take a rights-based approach, focus more on employment, and mobilize resources to advance substantive gender equality.
Ecdi romania martie 2014
Romania has a life expectancy of 73 years, higher than the global average. HIV and tuberculosis prevalence are lower than global averages. Men are more likely to smoke regularly than women. While few women hold parliamentary seats or cabinet positions, gender equality legislation passed in 2002 outlawed discrimination and violence. The gender pay gap increased from 2002-2010 contrary to EU trends. Secondary education attainment for women rose from 61-67.8% from 2002-2011, narrowing the gap with men. The institutional framework for gender issues involves several government and non-government organizations working cooperatively.

Analysis economic value_of_the_unpaid_care_work_eng
This document analyzes the economic value of unpaid care work in the Republic of Serbia. It finds that women spend significantly more time than men on unpaid work like housework, childcare, and eldercare. This time spent on unpaid care work contributes to gender inequalities in the labor market and income distribution. The document reviews national strategies and data on gender gaps in time use. It estimates that unpaid care work constitutes a significant contribution to Serbia's GDP that is not currently measured or valued. The document calls for policies to promote more equal sharing of unpaid care responsibilities between men and women.
Jerome de Henau: Costing a Feminist Plan for a Caring Economy
This document proposes a plan for universal free childcare in the UK to address lack of affordable, high-quality childcare and barriers to women's employment. It estimates the costs of providing childcare for all children aged 6 months to primary school by qualified staff paid comparable to teachers or living wages. While the total annual public investment would be £55 billion or £33 billion respectively, employment effects could create 1.7 million jobs and increased tax revenue would fund 88-96% of costs. Universal childcare would boost gender equality, economic growth, and is argued to be more beneficial than austerity policies.
Inclusive local decision making & the UNCRPD
This document summarizes key points about nothing decisions being made about disabled people without their involvement. It discusses the social model of disability and principles of equal rights and participation. The UNCRPD emphasizes consultation and involvement of disabled people's organizations. Examples from the UK show involvement at national and local levels in policymaking, implementation, elected office, and through disabled people's organizations. Co-production is highlighted as moving beyond consultation to partnership.

150304 annual report_2014_web_en
This document summarizes progress on gender equality in the EU in 2014. It finds that while women's employment has increased, the gender employment gap remains at 11.5 percentage points. Progress in reducing the gender pay and pension gaps has also been slow. The document highlights the importance of work-life balance policies like affordable childcare and parental leave to further women's economic independence. It provides examples of EU-funded projects that aim to improve access to childcare and support for female entrepreneurship. Overall, the report finds that while some progress has been made on gender equality, significant challenges and gaps remain.
Addressing the Human Rights impact of Statelessness in the EU's external action
Addressing the Human Rights impact of Statelessness in the EU's external actionMartijn Jurgen Keeman
This document discusses addressing the human rights impact of statelessness in the EU's external action. It explores how the EU can play a greater role in fighting statelessness globally as part of its human rights work. The study finds that statelessness both stems from and leads to other human rights issues. It examines what the EU has already done internally and externally to address statelessness. It then recommends ways for the EU to strengthen its multilateral and bilateral efforts on statelessness, including priority areas of focus. Thematic priorities are supporting UNHCR's campaign to end statelessness by 2024, combating gender discrimination in nationality laws, and promoting children's right to a nationality. Country priorities are Côte d'Ivoire,Promote gender equality and empower women
The document discusses promoting gender equality and empowering women. While primary education equality has been achieved between girls and boys, few countries have achieved this at higher levels of education. Gender inequality persists in many countries, where women face discrimination in access to education, jobs, economic assets, and government participation. Violence against women also undermines efforts to achieve equality. More work is needed to ensure all women have access to education and equal opportunities and pay in employment.

Understanding how gender relations shape women’s and men’s lives is critical to disaster risk reduction (DRR). This is because women’s and men’s different roles, responsibilities, and access to resources influence how each will be affected by different hazards, and how they will cope with and recover from disaster. This presentation contains help and advice on mainstreaming gender in DRR work. This presentation is part of Oxfam GB's Gender and disaster risk reduction training pack available at www.oxfam.org.uk/genderdrrpack.
Chapter29 standpoint theory (1)
This document discusses Nancy Hartsock's feminist standpoint theory. It provides background on Hartsock, including that she is a philosopher known for her work in feminist epistemology and standpoint theory. The document then outlines several key assumptions of Hartsock's feminist standpoint theory, including that social location shapes understandings, subordinate groups have a clearer vision than ruling groups due to their struggle, and situated knowledge is grounded in context. Finally, the document defines some key concepts in standpoint theory, such as standpoint referring to a mental position from which life is viewed.
Gender mainstreaming ppt
The document discusses the concept of gender mainstreaming, which aims to promote gender equality by integrating gender perspectives into all policies, programs and projects. It emphasizes bringing gender issues into the mainstream of society to ensure gender equality is a primary goal across all areas of social and economic development. Additionally, it addresses the need for a level playing field with equal opportunities, representation, and participation between men and women.
Gender Mainstreaming concepts and approaches
This document provides definitions and explanations of key concepts related to gender mainstreaming. It discusses:
- The definition of gender mainstreaming as developing policies, programs, and development plans from a gender equality perspective to benefit both women and men.
- The differences between women's empowerment, which targets actions specifically towards women, and gender mainstreaming, which takes a gender lens to all programs and considers their differential impacts.
- Key gender-related terms like sex, gender, gender equality, and gender equity and how they are defined.
- The importance of gender analysis and gender-responsive budgeting in mainstreaming gender and addressing inequalities.

Gender discirmination PPT
This document discusses various forms of gender discrimination and their history. It introduces the concept of gender discrimination as prejudice or discrimination based on a person's sex or gender. Throughout history, women have faced discrimination in many areas such as the workplace where they are often paid less than men, in politics where they were denied the right to vote in many places, and through practices like sati and child marriage which target women. The document also examines different types of discrimination such as objectification, transgender discrimination, and discrimination in fields like education, the criminal justice system, and fashion.
Gender Equality
Gender inequality has historically disadvantaged women through discrimination and lack of legal rights. Women faced obstacles in professional life, education, healthcare, and political participation. They also experienced high rates of violence. Feminist theories analyze how gender differences, inequality, and oppression impact women's status in society. While progress has been made through movements and legislation, gender inequality persists in many areas around the world today.

Breaking down barriers to women's economic empowerment - summary noteDevelopment Co-operation Directorate (DCD-DAC)
Unpaid care work disproportionately burdens women around the world, limiting their economic participation. This document outlines policy recommendations to address this issue from an OECD report. It recommends (1) designing development programs and policies that target reducing and redistributing unpaid care work; (2) increasing awareness and advocacy around recognizing unpaid care responsibilities; and (3) developing social protections like cash transfers and pensions that support caregivers without exacerbating gender roles. Monitoring impacts and engaging diverse stakeholders can help ensure policies effectively support both caregivers and care receivers.Gender budgeting in OECD countries: Where do we stand? - Aline PENNISI, Italy

This document analyzes the impact of European youth employment policies before and during the economic crisis in Greece and Ireland. It finds that pre-crisis, the "soft law" nature of the European Employment Strategy allowed countries to deviate in their policies based on their institutional settings. Ireland more closely followed the EU's flexicurity approach due to its existing liberal market institutions, while Greece's policies diverged more due to its state-centered institutions. However, during the crisis the EU imposed strict austerity measures on both countries, diminishing the influence of national institutions and converging policies toward a neo-liberal model focused on reducing social protections and labor costs.

Vibhuti Patel Gender Budgeting, Journal of Asian Business Management, Vol. 7,...
Budget is an important tool in the hands of state for affirmative action for
improvement of gender relations through reduction of gender gap in the development
process. It can help to reduce economic inequalities, between men and women as well as
between the rich and the poor Hence, the budgetary policies need to keep into considerations
the gender dynamics operating in the economy and in the civil society. There is a need to
highlight participatory approaches bottom up budget, child budget, green budgeting,
local and global implications of pro-poor and pro-women budgeting and inter-linkages
between gender-sensitive budgeting and women’s empowerment. Understanding the
relationship between macroeconomic policies and the Union Budget, state budgets and
the local self government institutions in the context of economic reforms and globalisation
is a MUST as it has influenced women’s lives in several ways. It is good economic sense to
make national budgets gender-sensitive, as this will enable more effective targeting of
government expenditure to women specific activities and reduce inequitable consequences
of previous fiscal policies. The Gender Budget Initiative is a policy framework, methodology
and set of tools to assist governments to integrate a gender perspective into the budget as
the main national plan of public expenditure. It also aims to facilitate attention to gender
analysis in review of macroeconomic performance, ministerial budget preparations,
parliamentary debate and mainstream media coverage. Budget impacts women’s lives in
several ways. It directly promotes women’s development through allocation of budgetary
funds for women’s programmes or reduces opportunities for empowerment of women
through budgetary cuts.
