Identifying Promising Policies and Practices for Promoting Gender Equity in Global Green Employment

The working paper, Identifying Promising Policies and Practices for Promoting Gender Equity in Global Green Employment, is a synthesis of existing literature for promoting and optimizing women’s employment in manufacturing, construction and transportation. 

In this report, findings from a synthesis of existing scientific and practitioner literature on promising programs and policies for promoting and optimizing women’s employment in manufacturing, construction and transportation are presented. Women are currently severely underrepresented in these three sectors, and these sectors are critical for the growth of the Canadian and global green economy.
