A great piece of work from (CLES) Centre for Local Economic Strategies and as relevant now as I’m 2016. Thanks for the throwback Friday moment Lesley Martin ❤️
Today, we released our joint report with (CLES) Centre for Local Economic Strategies which analyses the gender inequalities and barriers to work that women face. Ultimately, the paper provides an agenda for change for gender inclusion with recommendations for local and national government.
Delighted to see coverage of #WomensWork on the front page of today’s The Yorkshire Post - link 👇 and read the full report at CLES.org.uk/womenswork
Today was the launch event for our joint report on #WomensWork with @CLESThinkDo and we’d like to thank everyone who attended, as well as all the speakers who provided a range of different perspectives on how gender equality can deliver stronger local economies.
It’s been brilliant to work with Women's Budget Group in setting out an agenda for change in our local and national economies. 🙌
Some brilliant and challenging contributions from our panel - responding to our new report on gender equality skilfully chaired by Dr Zubaida Haque

#Womenswork
The newly published research from (CLES) Centre for Local Economic Strategies Women's Budget Group & Leeds Council News is sobering stuff. The barriers to paid work encountered by women in Leeds has risen by 7% in the last year. This has huge economic & social impact. It's time to rewire the economy around inclusivity!
