Men ? equality and welfare

Nordic conference on men, masculinities and gender equality

SAS Radisson Hotel Scandinavia, Oslo, Tuesday 6. February 2007, 9.30 am ? 15.30 pm

Nordic Council of Ministers and Ministry of Children and Equality are inviting Nordic politicians and other decision makers from state level and municipalities, and from working life organisations, to attend this conference.

The aim of the conference is: 1. A sum up of five years of Nordic cooperation on men, masculinities and gender equality 2. To discuss what now, looking forward, sending recommendations to Nordic governments, municipalities and working life about what male policy ought to be in the years to come.

Participants at the conference will in advance get a preliminary bulletin which will be built upon the conclusions and the suggestions of the speakers, and on the experiences from the Nordic work the last years. The bulletin will be concluded during the last part of the conference, striving to reach agreement so that the bulletin can be spread to all actual levels in the Nordic countries.

The numbers of participants are limited to 100 persons. Men are especially called on. Those who need accommodations from the night before conference will be paid for, staying at the hotel Scandinavia ? that is if you can not reach the conference by travelling the same morning. The conference is free of charge, but travelling costs has to be paid for by the participants.

Time allowed for entries will be 01. December 2006, and the first 100 may attend, although we want to secure that at least 10 from each country will be present, 5 from autonomous territories.
