Session Submission Summary

30411 - Gender Inequality

Sun, August 10, 10:00 to 11:30am, East Tower, Hyatt Regency Chicago, Floor: Concourse Level/Bronze, Randolph 2

Description

While gender equality has advanced in many areas, gender inequalities remain entrenched and continue to evolve in response to cultural and structural shifts. This session brings together five, methodologically diverse studies--including works that utilize qualitative interviews, large-scale surveys, and historical analyses--to investigate the mechanisms that maintain gender disparities and how these mechanisms have changed over time. Together, these papers suggest that while some barriers to gender equity have weakened, others remain deeply embedded in cultural perceptions and professional practices.
