This workshop will explore the role of women in regional research. We will present research that highlights the role of women and girls at the regional scale. We will hear from two speakers: Constanza Giannantoni will discuss her research on women’s labour market outcomes, fertility choices, and domestic violence. Chandrima Mukhopadhay will discuss open questions in regional research question in relation to urban mobility and gender. We then invite the audience to discuss their experience of researching gendered or women-specific topics, and the challenges and opportunities they have faced.
