Gender Equality Barometer
Finland follows the development of gender equality with the Gender Equality Barometer conducted every three to five years. It examines the experiences that people of different sexes and ages have of gender equality and its realisation in different areas of life, such as in working life, studies and family circle.
Statistics Finland carries out the survey on assignment of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health. The results will lend support to the development of gender equality policy, and they will be utilised by researchers and experts in various fields as well as by political decision-makers.
