One of the Nordic Council of Ministers' long-term goals is to support the Nordic countries to mainstream a gender equality perspective into the national budget and budgetary process. A further aim is to ensure that this perspective is given prominence in change work in the Nordic welfare states.One such area of work is referred to internationally as gender budgeting. This is the final report of a joint three-year project between Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. The finance ministries and ministries responsible for gender equality affairs have engaged in development work, exchanged ideas and experience concerning the work of mainstreaming a gender equality perspective into the national budget and budgetary process in each country. The aim of the report is to present the knowledge and experience that the project has helped generate and to provide recommendations on how gender budgeting in central government administrations may be successfully accomplished.

Migration, Equality and Racism trigger ever more salient societal debates. More than 80 VUB academics and co-authors joined forces for this book. Philosophers, lawyers, psychologists, health scientists, sociologists, geographers, criminologists, communication and political scientists ... look at migration, equality and racism from different disciplinary angles. Together they aim to contribute to an exercise of humanism as a praxis of criticism or a 'technique of trouble-making', in the words of Edward Said. Through 44 thought-provoking and informed opinion pieces, they question widespread beliefs on migration, equality and racism and propose solutions that might disturb. Let this book be a source of inspiration for those who want to spark an informed debate on the ever more salient issues of migration, equality and racism, for those who want to learn more on how and why humanism has often remained an empty box for migrants and racialized groups. Or for those who are in search of inspiration for a just future for all. Migration, Equality and Racism is the work of Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) think tank POINcaré and was created under the direction of Ilke Adam, Tundé Adefioye, Serena D'Agostino, Nick Schuermans and Florian Trauner.

Ökosoziale Transformation ist in aller Munde, aber wie können Praktiker*innen im sozialen Bereich dazu beitragen, und zwar auf eine gerechte und inklusive Weise? Die in diesem Sammelband vorgestellten Beiträge legen nahe, dass Räume, Praktiken und Didaktiken der Transformation dekolonisiert werden müssen, um den gegenwärtigen Status quo in Richtung einer gerechten und regenerativen planetarischen Zukunft zu verändern. Dieser Sammelband stellt Stimmen aus der Praxis vor, die bereits in der Praxis dekolonisierende Transformationsarbeit leisten. Wir bringen Praktiker*innen zusammen, die die Vielfalt sozialer Positionierungen als Schwarze, People of Color, Migrant*innen, queer, aber auch weiß oder cishet widerspiegeln. Gemeinsam präsentieren sie eine Vielzahl globaler Stimmen und Ansichten darüber, wie dekolonisierende Ansätze zur ökosozialen Transformation in einem vielfältigen Europa heute aussehen. Ökosoziale Transformation ist in aller Munde, aber wie können Praktiker*innen im sozialen Bereich auf eine gerechte und inklusive Weise dazu beitragen? Die in diesem Sammelband vorgestellten Beiträge legen nahe, dass Räume, Praktiken und Didaktiken der Transformation dekolonisiert werden müssen, um den gegenwärtigen Status quo in Richtung einer gerechten und regenerativen planetarischen Zukunft zu verändern. Die hier versammelten Stimmen aus der Praxis zeigen, zeigen, dass dies möglich ist und leisten bereits jetzt in der Praxis dekolonisierende Transformationsarbeit. Wir bringen Praktiker*innen zusammen, die das vielfältige Spektrum sozialer Positionierungen widerspiegeln: - Schwarze, People of Color, Migrant*innen und weiß, queer und cisgender, älter und jünger, bildungsprivilegiert und von Klassismus betroffen. Gemeinsam präsentieren sie eine Vielzahl globaler Stimmen und Ansichten darüber, wie dekolonisierende Ansätze zur ökosozialen Transformation in einem vielfältigen Europa heute aussehen. Die Autor*innen dieses Buches laden deshalb auf eine Reise ein zu Zugängen und Praktiken, die die Grundlagen schaffen, um innere und äußere Transformation für eine gerechte Welt zu ermöglichen. Der Sammelband richtet sich an Praktiker*innen, Fachkräfte und Studierende im sozialen und pädagogischen Bereich und an Menschen in Deutschland, die sich selbst als migrantisch, BIPoC, FLINTA* oder queer positionieren und ihre Verbündeten sind, um gemeinsam antirassistische, diversitätskritische und post-humanistische Zugänge in den Praktiken der ökosozialen Transformation Realität werden zu lassen.

Où est passé le peuple parisien ? Depuis plusieurs décennies, la capitale connaît un processus de gentrification, un embourgeoisement spécifique des quartiers populaires qui passe par la transformation matérielle de la ville (réhabilitation de l'habitat, renouvellement des commerces, embellissement de l'espace public). Que se passe-t-il vraiment et qu'y a-t-il en jeu dans ces transformations à la fois urbaines et sociales ? Voilà qui est le plus souvent laissé dans le flou et présenté comme une évolution « naturelle » des villes. Ce livre vient éclairer ce processus et permet d'approfondir la connaissance de Paris et de son évolution récente. Il montre que cette transformation est autre chose qu'une simple amélioration du bâti, de l'espace public ou des commerces, et révèle à qui elle profite et qui elle dépossède. Un livre essentiel pour permettre aux lecteurs, Parisiens ou non, de s'approprier les enjeux sociaux et politiques de l'évolution de la ville.

Attraverso l'adozione del Piano di uguaglianza di genere, l'Università degli Studi di Cagliari si propone quale agente strategico di promozione del principio fondativo europeo della parità di genere, nella sua duplice veste di luogo di socializzazione volto al contrasto delle disuguaglianze e all'applicazione dei principi di equità della cittadinanza sostanziale, e di organizzazione lavorativa caratterizzata da diversità varie che possono tradursi in rischio di disuguaglianze nella distribuzione delle posizioni e nella progressione lungo i percorsi professionali. Il modo in cui la conoscenza scientifica viene generata, infatti, non è disgiunto dal sistema strutturale globale, che riproduce disuguaglianze di genere all'interno delle organizzazioni di ricerca. Un'attività di ricerca non libera da stereotipi di genere può alimentare discriminazioni e limitare le pari opportunità all'interno delle organizzazioni stesse. Il settore della ricerca e dell'istruzione universitaria e postuniversitaria ha una missione formativa peculiare, che rende necessarie azioni specifiche volte a superare i divari di genere. I Piani per l'uguaglianza di genere si inseriscono in questa ottica come strumenti chiave per generare cambiamenti strutturali nelle organizzazioni formative e conseguire il superamento dei divari tra uomini e donne. Il Piano di uguaglianza di genere di UNICA è stato sviluppato nell'ambito del progetto Horizon 2020 SUPERA. Through the adoption of the Gender Equality Plan, the University of Cagliari proposes itself as a strategic agent for the promotion of the European founding principle of gender equality, in its dual capacity as a place of socialization aimed at combating inequalities and applying the equity principles of substantive citizenship, and as a work organization characterized by diversities that can translate into the risk of inequalities in the distribution of positions and progression along professional paths. Indeed, the way scientific knowledge is generated is not disconnected from the overall structural system, which reproduces gender inequalities within research organizations. Research activity that is not free of gender stereotypes can fuel discrimination and limit equal opportunity within the organizations themselves. The undergraduate and postgraduate research and education sector has a distinctive educational mission, necessitating specific actions to overcome gender gaps. Gender Equality Plans fit into this view as key tools for generating structural changes in educational organizations and achieving the bridging of gender gaps. UNICA's Gender Equality Plan was developed under the Horizon 2020 project SUPERA.
