Gender in Norway - the http://gender.no website  - is an English language information service about official gender equality work, gender research, and gender statistics in Norway. The website is a collaboration between various public authorities and agencies in Norway.

Gender in Norway presents the work Norway is doing in the field of gender equality within both the national and the international arena. Gender statistics and gender research contribute to providing a picture of Norwegian society from a gender perspective.

The website gathers information on gender equality related strategies, laws and regulations, and policies and tools. It includes gender statistics and gender research, pointing to facts, figures and reports as well as researchers, web resources and publications. Gender in Norway does not duplicate information published on other websites but links to relevant Internet resources in English.

The website is also a channel for news on gender equality, research and related issues. A calendar of future events gathers information on relevant conferences, seminars, etc., held in English.

Unfortunately, there is still a large amount of relevant information that is only available in Norwegian. Therefore, the Gender in Norway project is also in dialogue with the Norwegian authorities about the need for more gender relevant information to be translated and made widely available in English - as well as other languages.

The website is an ongoing project - please help us improve this website by submitting feed-back on its contents.

Partners in the Gender in Norway are public institutions devoted to promote gender equality. KILDEN Information Centre for Gender Research in Norway is the coordinator of the Gender in Norway project.
