Research
Revealing and highlighting the experiences of women working in higher education
We take a look at the experiences of UK HE parents and carers
This research focused on cohabiting parent couples, because data on ways in which unpaid labour is split between partners is scarcely available, yet influences career progression significantly. We focused on professional services because they have been largely ignored in sector studies on the impact of the pandemic to date, but represent a significant proportion of the workforce. We aim to bring a complementary perspective to what is happening in our sector.
