In addition to the activities that ILO was responsbile for, ILO implemented suplementary activities for raising awareness on gender equality, particularly targeting men beneficiaries.

title:

ILO should address the sociocultural and structural barriers and attitudes that constrain female labour force participation in Turkey. Even though it looks like an overarching goal, holistic approaches boosting women’s access to labour market that is tackling gender stereotypes and prejudices on many levels: within families, communities, the education system and the business environment, should be strategized and followed. At the same time, women can benefit not only from interventions that provide them with technical skills and access to finance, but also those that offer soft skills development, boost self-esteem, and offer access to peer-based networks.
