Gender Equality Programmes in Higher Education
Author: Sabine Grenz
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3531912186
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
Gender equality has been on the agenda of national policies of higher education within and outside the European Union (EU) for the last twenty years. In some European countries, this process was initiated early on and has brought about remarkable results, while in others progress has been slower. Different countries and institutions have focussed on different strategies for raising awareness about the discrimination of women and for increasing the number of women in aca- mia, particularly in leadership positions. Previous research on gender equality in higher education has produced many case studies about programmes at institutions of higher education in Europe and elsewhere. Different actors like the European Commission and - tional organisations have also furnished reports about national policies. Building on this material, it is now time to analyse under what conditions equality p- grammes are successful. For a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of and barriers to gender equality in higher education, we also need studies that focus on the development of gender equality policies in different countries, as well as on conditions of implementation, change of strategy, and the evaluation of - sults. Comparative studies would be another useful tool for understanding the development and success of gender equality programmes.

The Making of Equal Opportunities Policies in Universities
Author: Sarah Neal
Publisher: Open University Press
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
This is an exploration of how higher education in contemporary Britain has responded to questions of equal opportunuties (particularly questions of race), what types of responses have been made, and how effective they have been. The book analyzes the political character of equal opportunities policies, the process of their formation and the structure put in place to implement them. Foregrounding research dilemmas, the author draws upon four university case studies, using both equal opportunities documents and interviews with key personnel. She focuses on the institutional discourses which surround equal opportunities in the universities and is concerned not only with their treatment of the issues, but also with the positions taken up by academic trade unions.
