Closing Gender Gaps Workshop

This workshop brings together leading researchers to examine the drivers of gender inequality in labor markets and households, and the policies that can help close persistent gaps. One session will focus on labor economics, exploring how firms attract talent, respond to sexual harassment legislation, and design interventions to promote gender equity at work. The second session will turn to family formation, couple dynamics, education, and fertility decisions, highlighting how expectations, preferences, and economic conditions shape gender outcomes across countries. Together, the program offers cutting-edge evidence on how institutions, firms, and households influence progress toward gender equality.
