Gender, work and care in changing times
The aim of this conference will be to highlight and discuss recent cutting-edge research into the current position of gender relations in European labour markets and Welfare States and consider what achievements have been made and what challenges remain in a Europe “in crisis”. This should facilitate debate about future developments, Europe-wide, interdisciplinary learning and attempts to influence policy. All papers should consider current economic and policy developments at a comparative, European, national and/or regional level.
