Quing - Quality in Gender & Equality Policies

Facts

Run time
10/2006  – 03/2011

Description

Gender issues are constitutive of current European polarizations in terms of ethnicity, sexuality and religion. Innovative perspectives to address these divergences and polarizations need to avoid opposing minority rights and gender equality. Gender equality policies, as the most developed policies against inequality, provide the best entrance to developing inclusive gender and equality policies. QUING will actively bring together and construct the knowledge needed for such inclusive policies, by conceptualizing how technocratic tendencies can be counteracted and how attention for intersectionality can be integrated. It will also assess the current content, quality and problems of gender and equality policies and produce recommendations and standards for gender and training so that policy making fits active gender equal citizenship in a multicultural Europe.
