Week Eight: Parity

At least four state legislatures and seven countries have reached or are approaching parity. Europe has mandated quotas for women on corporate boards. Great Britain and Australia have developed government organs to work with the private sector to increase female representation—programs that have proven highly successful. More than two dozen countries have elected female leaders. But does the same critical mass hold true for men infiltrating traditionally female professions like teaching? This class will look at the lessons learned and what parity might look like for everyone.
