Description

This conference-style virtual class will be an in-depth exploration of the complex notions of sexism, gender stereotyping and discrimination that persist in the workplace.

By focusing on these issues, the conference aims to raise awareness of persistent inequalities and encourage collective reflection on how to promote genuine gender equality in the workplace. In addition, it will offer moments for reflection and the exchange of ideas, encouraging awareness and concrete action to create more inclusive and equitable working environments.
