Centre
for Gender and Labour Centre
for Gender and Labour is
a new centre set up at the institute with the objective of addressing and
strengthening the understanding of gender issues in the labour market.
Gender issues in labour market have occupied an important dimension with
the initiation of the structural adjustment programme. Sex based
discrimination; marginalisation and segmentation are on the increase with
women getting excluded socially, economically and politically. These
issues need to be addressed to ensure gender equality in the labour
market, which require concerted efforts both at academic and policy
levels. The centre is established towards fulfilling this felt need. The activities of the centre are envisaged to upgrade the status of the institute to a leading institution in the area of research, education, training and advocacy on gender and women labour issues. Further, the centre is visualized to act as an apex repository of documents and data on women labour and as an interactive forum for experts and activists in the field to enhance the understanding of gender and women labour issues. The following themes have been identified as the priority research areas of the Centre.
