This is a project about the experience of women in lower-paid occupations.

We aim to find out if gender inequality is present in lower-paid occupations, how gender inequality is affecting women in workplaces and raise awareness on this topic.

EXPERT'S OPINIONS

To learn more about gender inequality, through its "road to fame", "how it stays relevant" and how to banish it, we had a talk with professor Mary Nell Trautner from the University of Buffalo. Dr. Trautner is a Sociology professor, whose research focuses on social inequality and social justice; the ways in which inequality is formed, sustained, and/or experienced are shaped by law, culture, and organizational practices.

We have included fragments of the chat with professor Trautner in relevant sections of the page. Attached below is the full interview.
