Description
The fellows enrolled in the module Gender, Labour and Migration participated in a two day technical meeting of the Equal Pay International Coalition (EPIC) on promoting better indicators, statistics, data and policies to reduce the gender pay gap. The technical meeting was attended by 70-80 international and local specialists with an overall aim of identifying how pay gaps between women and men can be analysed in broader contexts of inequality, including looking at women’s limited access to paid employment (in emerging and low income countries) and the unequal division of unpaid work within households (in all economic contexts).
