The research programme will shed light on the impact of women’s advancement in the labour market for family and the workplace. This strategic direction aims to bolster the department's expertise in social demography, responding to the growing demand for comprehensive research, supervision, and mentoring in this vital area. Moreover, it seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaborations within the department and with scholars from other disciplines working on the dynamics of gender inequality and its implications for the family and the labour market.
