Impact
GenPol believes that gender relations are key to understanding the complexities of the modern world and producing meaningful social change. However, it is often challenging to incorporate gender concerns into economic, social and cultural activities in a sustainable and effective manner.
GenPol’s top-notch research programmes shed light on matters of migration, crime, violence, media, employment relations, environment, sexuality. Findings are communicated through multiple, clear and accessible outlets, which allow multiple stakeholders to re-consider their work through gender lenses.
GenPol’s high quality, customer-tailored consulting and training services turn these research findings into practical, innovative and effective solutions.
Get in touch
GenPol is interested in connecting with any businesses, governmental and non-governmental organisations working on gender issues, women’s rights, sex and gender education, and the intersections between gender and migration, gender and organised crime, gender and equality in the work-place. They welcome media inquiries and speaking opportunities on these matters.
