Persistence and career choices of female Finnish university physics students
2018
Finland is often seen and admired as an equity and education-focused country. They have policies that champion gender equity and a world-renowned K-12 education system, with students ranking among the top on international metrics. However, little is known on whether these policies and early education experiences support gender equity in postsecondary education and beyond, particularly in fields that struggle to support women. The few studies that exist indicate that despite having aptitude and national policy that seeks to create gender equity, women may not pursue physics careers. As part of a larger project, we present findings from a study on Finnish physics students enrolled in Finnish …
Career counselling at Indian universities : Cases from different regions
2019
Career studies indicate that individuals are increasingly responsible for their own careers, which seem to be more diverse than ever. This raises a question for universities regarding how they can develop their career counselling services so that students receive the help and guidance they need to manage their careers. Previous studies show that women have more difficulties advancing in a career than men. To increase women’s career opportunities and empower them to participate in working life, ultimately increasing gender equality in society and at work, women’s career counselling at universities needs special attention. In this study, career counselling at Indian universities in different …

Early marriage and cultural constructions of adulthood in two slums in Dar es Salaam.
2018
This study examines under-18 marriage in urban Tanzania from an ethnographic perspective. Due to poverty and high unemployment, some girls aspire to early marriage. Two pathways to early marriage are identified: first, poverty and gendered economic disparities motivate girls to begin transactional sexual activity at an early age, leading parents to favour early marriage as a risk-reduction measure. Second, educational opportunities are often closed off to girls before marriage, as a result of which early marriage becomes the only culturally approved pathway that allows girls to present themselves to others as a self-sufficient agent. These pathways are reinforced by cultural and religious c…
Viisi naista, viisi elämää, viisi tarinaa
2020
Brittiläisen historiantutkija Hallie Rubenholdin suomennettu tietokirja, monielämäkerta Viiltäjä-Jackiksi nimetyn sarjamurhaajan viidestä uhrista tarjoaa uudenlaisen aikaikkunan 1880-luvun Lontoon kaduille ja viiden murhatun naisen elämäntarinoihin. Keitä naiset olivat – mitä lopulta tiedämme heistä ja kuinka totta tapausta koskevat, yleisinä pidetyt tosiasiat itse asiassa ovat olleet? Miksi naisten elämänvaiheista on tärkeää kirjoittaa yhä edelleen – yli sata kolmekymmentä vuotta tapahtumien jälkeenkin? nonPeerReviewed
