The Gender Institute is pleased to announce it's new project, the Commission on Gender, Inequality, and Power.
The Commission is designed to draw on LSE research and external experts to provide theoretical and empirical knowledge to inform public and policy debates in the UK concerned with understanding and addressing the complex and multidimensional character of inequality and power imbalances between women and men.
Work will focus on the four main areas of Economy, Law, Politics, and Media/Culture. In addition to these broad areas, four cross cutting themes of violence, work/life balance, rights, and power will be explored.
The Commission is being co-directed by Professor Diane Perrons| and Professor Nicola Lacey|.
Professor Perrons recently gave a lecture 'Gendering the Social Sciences: the Gender Institute orientation public lecture', which you can listen to here|. You can also follow the Commission's progress on Facebook|.
