TitleEconomic Effects of Gender Issues
ParticipantsAmélia Bastos (Principal Investigator), João Cruz, Isabel Proença
SummaryThis project aims to analyze the impact of gender on several issues, including the gender pay gap,
poverty and social exclusion, labor market participation. In the absence of gender inequality
between men and women, we would expect that women actively participating in the labor market and
their respective households would enjoy increased incomes, resulting in improved well-being. These
critical topics will be explored through empirical studies that require advanced econometric
modeling.
