- Abstract
- This chapter provides an introduction to the study, discusses various definitions of success in promoting a gendered agenda in higher education (HE) and outlines the methodology. It then examines gender indices and the national context, and the labour force participation of women. Next, it explores HE and gender equality, and both external and internal strategies for achieving gender equality in universities. Finally, it briefly outlines the structure of the book.
