Andrea Krizsan, CPS research fellow and DPP adjunct faculty, contributed to a recently published study on the role of men in gender equality.
The study was commissioned by the European Commission in order to fill the gap of specific and in-depth knowledge of men in gender equality issues. This is the first EU study which undertakes systematic and comparative research in the fields of education, employment, reconciliation policies, violence and health.
The study is the synthesis of findings of 31 national reports from the 27 EU Member States and 4 EFTA countries (Iceland, Lichtenstein, Norway, Switzerland). Literature analysis, qualitative research and quantitative analysis using EUROSTAT data were made to obtain a picture of the current situation in Europe.
Three main issues are covered:
- "Men and care" - how men are involved in domestic duties and care-giving;
- "Men at work" - how men are involved in gender equality at work;
- "Men and gender equality" - how to address men's issues in gender equality.
