The OECD review of Gender Equality in Peru: Towards a Better Sharing of Paid and Unpaid Work is the second of a series focusing on Latin American and the Caribbean countries. It compares gender gaps in labour and educational outcomes in Peru with other countries. Particular attention is put on the uneven distribution of unpaid work, and the extra burden this places on women. It investigates how policies and programmes in Peru can make this distribution more equitable. The first part of the report reviews the evidence on gender gaps and on what causes these, including the role played by attitudes. The second part develops a comprehensive framework to address these challenges, presenting a broad range of options to reduce the unpaid work burden falling on women, and to increase women's labour income. The final part discusses the impact of the COVID-19 crisis and considers how the policy priorities of the government will have to change to address these. An earlier review in the same series has looked at gender equality policies in Chile (2021).

"This book compares perspectives on gender equality and diversity in Norway and Japan, focusing on family, education, media and technology, sexuality and reproduction, and literature as seen through a gendered lens. What can we learn from a comparison between two countries who stand in significant contrast to each other with respect to gender equality? Norway and Japan differ in terms of historical, cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. Most importantly, Japan lags far behind Norway when it comes to the World Economic Forum's Gender Gap Report. Rather than taking a narrow approach which takes as its starting point the assumption that Norway has so much "more" to offer in terms of gender equality, the authors attempt to show that a comparative perspective of two countries in the West and East can be of mutually benefit to both contexts in the advancement of gender equality. The interdisciplinary team of researchers contributing to this book cover a range of contemporary topics in gender equality and diversity including; fatherhood and masculinity, teaching and learning in Gender Studies education, cultural depictions of gender, technology, trans experiences and feminism. This unique collection is suitable for researchers and students in gender studies, sociology, Japan Studies and European Studies"--

« Retourne faire la vaisselle et du tricot » ; « Qu'elles s'occupent de leurs casseroles… » ; « On dirait un tir de femme enceinte »… Autant de « petites phrases », trop souvent répétées dans le monde du sport, où le machisme et le sexisme semblent régner sinon en maîtres, du moins dans une forme de connivence naturelle. Du sexisme ordinaire, touchant d'ailleurs femmes comme hommes, aux violences sexuelles, de la question d'une « nature masculine » du sport à celle de la féminité des sportives et des actrices du sport, à laquelle celles-ci entretiennent elles-mêmes un rapport non dénué d'ambiguïtés, l'ancienne handballeuse et sociologue Béatrice Barbusse décrypte et analyse pas à pas la réalité de l'ancrage du sexisme dans ce milieu. S'appuyant sur des cas concrets et sur son propre vécu, elle entend libérer une parole et souligne aussi les changements en cours et le chemin encore à parcourir pour une plus grande égalité.

Cette revue de littérature présente les enjeux autour des inégalités de genre et de l'autonomisation des filles et des femmes dans les pays en développement en termes d'emploi, à travers une étude des publications de l'Agence Française de Développement (AFD). Entre discriminations légales, ségrégation professionnelle, division genrée du travail et les « doubles journées », l'accès des femmes au marché du travail et à l'emploi décent dans les pays en développement peut conduire à une (re)production des inégalités de genre. Favoriser une distribution plus égalitaire des rôles dans la société et la déconstruction des stéréotypes de genre sont des pas en avant fondamentaux pour enrayer ce processus, qui va de pair avec une éducation égale pour les filles et les garçons, un accès à l'emploi décent et rémunéré, une participation politique des femmes, et des changements juridiques et légaux appropriés par la société. Adopter une approche holistique dans l'analyse, la programmation, la mise en œuvre et le monitoring de l'égalité de genre semble alors indispensable.

The papers in this volume were selected and revised from among those presented at the conference: Gender and Social Transformation: Global, Transnational, and Local Realities and Perspectives, Beijing, China in 2009. Through case studies and interview data from across the globe we see how intersectionality and inequality are contextualized shaping womens agencies, gender relations, identity, the politics of belonging, power structures, institutional arrangements, and empowerment (self and/or collective) in local communities and cultures influenced by transnational and global networks and processes. Those who experience inequality, the politics of exclusion and social injustice by virtue of gender, ethnicity and/or class and other differences are the most vulnerable in the face of new adversities, including those that occur in response to globalization. Broader theoretical and methodological contexts for these nation- and region-specific studies are provided in essays by leading gender theorists. Divisions of labor, migration, war and peace-building are among the specific topics addressed in papers from China, India, Israel, Korea, Northern Ireland, Turkey, and the United States.
