Description

This project is a study on the perceptions of the economic impact of unequal sharing of unpaid work in the lives of immigrant women and men in Portugal.

Aims to characterize the perceptions on the economic impact of unequal sharing of unpaid work and divorce in the lives of immigrant women and men living in Portugal. In partnership with non-governmental agencies and universities, the research will focus on immigrant women and men from Brazilian, Cape Verde and Eastern Europe living in Portugal.

Will contribute to the construcion of concerted and adaptive responses as well as to a detailed and systematic knowledge concerning the role of immigrant women and men in issues of gender equality in Portugal. This will also promote the improvement of the quality of life of immigrants and their effective integration in the country.
