Gendering Change: The Welfare State and Women's Rights The Nordic model foresees gender equality within a committed welfare state. The Nordic countries are leaders in closing the gender gap with high female labour force participation, the lowest salary gaps between men and women in the world and abundant opportunities for women to rise to positions of leadership. These societies have made it possible for parents to combine work and family with more shared participation in childcare and equitable distribution of labour at home. A session that looks at the policies and practices that help promote women.
