Sue Yeandle, Director of CIRCLE, speaking on ‘Gender and Employment in Local Labour Markets
The Gender and Employment in Local Labour Markets research programme, directed by Sue Yeandle and based in Sheffield Hallam University’s Centre for Social Inclusion, was co-funded through a major European Social Fund award and in collaboration with twelve English Local Authorities, the Equal Opportunities Commission, and the TUC.
The programme comprised a major programme of statistical analysis, reported in a series of Gender Profiles, six new Local Research Studies (each producing a series of local reports and a synthesis report), and an extensive programme of dissemination and gender mainstreaming activities.
All reports produced during the lifetime of the project are available electronically and a new book based on the programme, Policy for A CHANGE: local labour markets and gender equality, (2009) edited by Sue Yeandle, is available from the Policy Press, Bristol.
