Sted: Helsinki, Finland

Helsinki, 18 May 2018 | Finnish Centre for Pensions (Kirjurinkatu 3, Helsinki)

Despite recent efforts to equalize the treatment of men and women in the pension system design in many countries, the gender gap in pensions persists. This gap contributes to old-age income inequality in Europe and beyond. The interplay of pension and family policies has a major impact on mitigating the gender gap in pensions. This one-day conference, organized by the Finnish Centre for Pensions, will gather timely analyses on gender differences in employment and pensions. Keynote speakers Francesca Bettio (University of Siena) Katja Möhring (University of Mannheim) Rense Nieuwenhuis (University of Stockholm) Kati Kuitto (Finnish Centre for Pensions) Panelists Anna Rotkirch (Family Federation of Finland) Ilkka Kaukoranta (The Central Organization of Finnish Trade Unions SAK) Juhana Vartiainen (National Coalition Party) Chair: Mikko Kautto (Finnish Centre for Pensions) Please register for the conference by 4 May 2018.
