Gender Equality in the Labour Market and Education

A labour market with equal opportunities is vital for both economic growth and social justice. The Nordic region works systematically to dismantle gender-segregated labour markets, ensure equal pay for equal work, and foster inclusion across all sectors. The publications in this category showcase analyses, policy recommendations, and examples of best practices from throughout the Nordic region.
