About the Workshop |
To inaugurate the IZA Gender and Family Research Program, we are very pleased to announce the 1st Annual Workshop on Gender and Family Economics. The workshop will create a stimulating environment that will enable participants to engage in discussion of and receive valuable feedback on pressing issues in gender- and family-related research and policy. |

We invite contributions from both senior and junior researchers. Although submissions in all areas of gender and family economics are welcome, there is a particular interest in papers that focus on: |
|
Fertility, parental leave and child care policies
Investment in children
Gender equality and womens economic empowerment
Gender gaps in education and labor market outcomes
Intergenerational mobility
Intra-household resource allocation |
