As part of International Women’s Day, the panel “Ecology, Violence, and Employment” will explore the multidimensional challenges women face in social life. The discussion will cover women’s labour, gender-based violence, and the impacts of ecological crises on women.

Speakers will highlight the social justice and gender equality dimensions of climate change and environmental degradation, note the structural links between violence and inequality, and discuss labour market barriers such as care responsibilities, informal work, and sectoral segregation. The panel aims to emphasize the need for holistic policies addressing ecology, violence, and employment and will include contributions from participants.
