Board meeting, Garden Court Hotel,

The Hague, May 21, 2012

Page 2: Gender at Work: A History of the Organization

Where do we come from? Early 1990s:

Disappointment with gender training

Lack of significant changes within organizations and programmes

Lack of significant changes in lives of women and men

Organizational culture & deep set norms?

Engagement instead of checklists?
