  • Supporting Women's Entrepreneurship in The
    Paper to Gender, Work and Organization, Keele University, 21-23 June 2010 Stream Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Growth: Gender perspectives Authors PhD, Katarina Pettersson, Nordregio PhD, Sigrid Hedin, Nordregio Corresponding Author Senior Research Fellow, PhD Katarina Pettersson Nordregio (Nordic Centre for Spatial Development) PO Box 1658 SE-111 86 Stockholm, Sweden [email protected] Supporting Women’s Entrepreneurship in the Nordic Countries – A Critical Analysis of National polices in a Gender perspective Abstract Recent developments within international organisations have put a strong emphasis on supporting the development of women entrepreneurs. This paper aims at analysing national state support programmes for women’s entrepreneurship, in the Nordic countries, in a gender perspective. The paper in this way performs a more systematic Nordic comparative analysis of the varying policy goals, underlying paradigms and discourses regarding support for women’s entrepreneurship in a gender perspective, which have until now been missing. We also apply a specific focus on their spatial perspective. We conclude that the Nordic countries are marked by some differences in their efforts to support women’s entrepreneurship. All countries have a programme or an action plan with the aim of supporting women’s entrepreneurship, but Iceland. The programmes vary in their underlying paradigms and rationales for supporting women’s entrepreneurship: We can place Norway at one end of the spectrum as its’ policy programme is most clearly influenced by a feminist empowerment paradigm seeking to tailor and/or transforming the existing support system through measures aimed at women. At the other end of the spectrum we have Denmark focusing most clearly on economic growth in line with a neo-liberal paradigm.

    Mapping Scandinavian Research about Women in Public Life, published in English 1970-2015. Collected by Hedvig Stahre, master of political science - for the Nordic-Arab Research Collaboration Project “New Avenues for Women”. 2015. The Nordic-Arab research collaboration project, ”New Avenues for Political Influence for Women in the Arab region”, financed by the Swedish Research Council. Project leader: Drude Dahlerup. Arab partner: Center for Arab Women for Training and Research, CAWTAR Mapping Scandinavian Research about Women in Public Life, published in English 1970-2015. Collected by Hedvig Stahre, master of political science. Introduction This mapping is made for the benefit of researchers abroad, who want to learn about Gender Studies in the Nordic countries, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden on the theme of women/gender in public life1. Most of the research literature - especially from the first decades of Nordic Women’s Studies/Gender Studies - was published in the native languages, and is therefore not included here. But with the development of Gender Studies an increasing number of publications would appear in English. See also the essay by Drude Dahlerup on “The development of Women’s Studies/Gender Studies in the social sciences in the Scandinavian countries”, an overview over the main approaches in Nordic Women’s Studies/Gender Studies, based on all publications within this research field. Both documents are available at www.statsvet.su.se/wip What is ‘public life’? The differentiation between what is public and what is private life has been discussed in many different fora, and is a contested issue also in gender research.

  • Overview of Achievements and Challenges in Promoting Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment
    Denmark Response from the Danish Government to the Questionnaire to Governments on Implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action (1995) and the Outcome of the Twenty-Third Special Session of the General Assembly (2000) For preparation of regional review and appraisals in the context of the 15th anniversary of the adoption of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action in 2010 Part One: Overview of achievements and challenges in promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment Introduction: Gender equality is a pivotal element of Denmark‟s democracy and a basic principle of Danish politics. It is an element based on respect for human rights and on fundamental freedoms in all areas of society - in political, economic, social, cultural and civil spheres of life. Denmark aims at securing de jure as well as de facto gender equality for women and men. Women and men have the same rights, obligations and opportunities in all fields of society. Policy on gender equality The Gender Equality Board handles actual complaints about discriminatory treatment of women and men. By 1 January 2009 a new general complaints board to consider complaints regarding discrimination based on gender, race, colour of the skin, religion or faith, age, disability or national, social or ethnic origin, political views or sexual orientation was established. With the set up of the new complaints board, the Gender Equality Board was closed down. The new board includes a chairman and two deputy chairmen who are judges as well as nine other members, who must be attorneys and who are to be appointed by the Minister for Employment subject to recommendation by the Minister for Gender Equality and the Minister for Refugee, Immigration and Integration Affairs.

  • Female Genital Mutilation How Many Girls Are at Risk in Denmark?
    Gender-based violence Female genital mutilation How many girls are at risk in Denmark? 11–21 % (1) Girls at risk at risk The European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) estimates that 11–21 % of girls (1 408–2 568 of FGM girls) aged 0–18 are at risk of female genital mutilation (FGM) in Denmark, out of a total pop- ulation of 12 462 girls aged 0–18 in 2019 originating from countries where FGM is practised. Of these 12 462 migrant girls, 82 % (10 269) are second generation. Girls at risk of FGM in Denmark mostly originate from Somalia. Smaller groups originate from Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Iraq, Sierra Leone and Sudan (2). Asylum-seeking and refugee girls 37 % of asylum- In 2019, there were 257 asylum-seeking girls aged 0–19 originating from FGM-practising coun- seeking girls tries, and 338 girls were granted asylum. Taken separately from resident migrants, EIGE esti- at risk mates that 37 % of asylum-seeking girls are at risk of FGM in Denmark (2019). Although ref- of FGM ugees who have been granted asylum in Denmark are included in the ‘regular’ migrant figures (11-21%), EIGE estimates that a higher percentage (25 %) of refugee girls are at risk of FGM compared to regular migrants. FGM is a severe form of gender-based violence, leaving deep physical and psychological scars and affecting the lives of victims around the world. It is a violent form of subordination of women and girls and it stands in gross contradiction to the principles of gender equality. It is a violation of women’s and girls’ human rights.
