The project has led the way in uncovering the intersectional inequalities facing older women and work in Manchester.

This seminar will explore the use of art and participatory research as a means of uncovering inequality narratives and finding solutions through community activism. Elaine will also cover some of the methods as well as the initial results of the project. 


This in-person event will be particularly useful for those interested in gender, intersectionality, working lives, midlife, family, equality, activism and community.
