National workshops
By joining the workshop, participants have a chance to:
- discuss research-based evidence and practical business experiences on the benefits brought about by gender equality, occupational diversification and gender balance in decision making in SMEs;
- analyse how gender stereotypes constitute a cause of gender inequalities and inefficiencies in the life of individuals, in enterprises, and in the labour market;
- assess strategies and tools to help SMEs “unlock potential”, that is to promote gender equality in occupations and managerial positions and therefore make a better use of women and men’s skills and talents, to the benefit of enterprises;
- appraise the relevance of international, EU and national policies and legal obligations on gender equality in employment;
- develop concrete plans for either further disseminating the “business case for gender equality” or implementing some of the proposed strategies at enterprise level.
How to participate
