A delegation of women trade unionists from the NIS countries has participated in a course for gender policies in Oxford on “Women, Leadership and Gender Equality” that took place in March. The course was organized by Ruskin College and constitutes part of the education and training policy of the ITUC/PERC. It was a week of fruitful discussion, practical skills development and seminars where the women had the opportunity to meet and work with the UK women’s organizations, part of the Webb Institute Leadership Development Program. It was also a perfect opportunity to call for decent life and decent work for women in the NIS region.
