SUMMARY:Understanding the Gender Pay Gap
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce an upcoming in-person seminar hosted at Agricultural University – Plovdiv\, led by Rositsa Beluhova-Uzunova\, member of WP2. \n\n\n\nTopic\n\n\n\nUnderstanding the Gender Pay Gap. \n\n\n\nWhen and Where?\n\n\n\nThe seminar will take place on 11 November 2025 at 09:00 as an on-site event. It is organized as a joint initiative between Work Package 5 and Work Package 2 and forms part of the Equality Days programme within the UNIgreen Alliance. \n\n\n\nSubject\n\n\n\nThe seminar will analyse the causes\, consequences and policy responses related to the gender pay gap\, with an emphasis on recent developments within the European Union. The seminar will provide a comprehensive explanation of how the gender pay gap is measured and interpreted\, distinguishing between the unadjusted pay gap based on overall earnings differences and the adjusted gap\, which accounts for variables such as education\, sector of employment and working hours. \n\n\n\nThe seminar will explore structural and socio-economic factors that contribute to unequal pay between men and women. Special attention will be given to the economic and social implications of the gender pay gap and its impact on women’s career development\, lifetime earnings and pension security. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, the seminar will review key EU strategies and legislative measures\, including the EU Gender Equality Strategy 2020–2025\, the Work-Life Balance Directive and the Pay Transparency Directive (2023). These initiatives aim to strengthen fairness and transparency in employment conditions and encourage institutional and corporate action in favour of equal pay for equal work. \n\n\n\nThis event supports UNIgreen’s  and Agricultural University- Plovdiv commitment to promoting equality\, diversity and inclusion and provides an opportunity for sharing knowledge\, building awareness and fostering dialogue on gender equality in both academic and professional environments. \n\n\n\nStay tuned: after the event\, we will share the seminar on UNIgreen YouTube Channel.
