You are here Networking: Urban Forum new report - Where are the women?
Urban Forum is launching a major new report based on research from all over the country, which points up the severe imbalance of men and women at senior levels in Local Strategic Partnerships (LSPs).
The report, published jointly with Oxfam Uk and Women's Resource Centre, finds that whilst women are fairly represented at lower levels of these structures, the percentages drop alarmingly higher up the scale. The report calls on government to address this by monitoring women's involvement and disseminating good practice from those LSPs that are performing well. Hard copies of the report will be available after it is launched.
Meanwhile, you can get a sneak preview here.
Urban Forum invites you to a special free launch event for this report on Monday 10th September.
