Having It All: Understanding Work & Family Dynamics in Contemporary Korea

Join us for another installment in the HRC Gender Studies Lab Lecture Series alongside Portland State University’s Professor Woo. In Korea, educational attainment has risen for all, but women’s employment is M-shaped and marriage/fertility rates are down. The complex social-gender mix is unique. During this event, we’ll compare gender health in Korea, Finland & US for working-age adults. Explore work-family-health links among young Koreans. Discover how underrepresented Korean women face gender inequality. Insights await!
