WG4 | Sustainable PPL terminology
Leader: Gerardo Meil
Substitute Leader: Pedro Romero Balsas
Challenges of WG4:
With WG4 the Action brings added value to the harmonisation of PPL terminologies across scientific disciplines and stakeholders. PPL policies have been studied and documented by supranational organisations like the EU, the OECD, the WHO, UNICEF, the EIGE and the ILO or the International Network on Leave Policies & Research. The Action aims at harmonising PPL terminologies used by
these organisations and networks to foster a common understanding of the description of PPL in the future. The harmonisation of PPL terminologies is important for the assessment of PPL policy design and the consequences of PPL policies for European societies in international comparison. The Action brings these different networks and organisations together and makes an important contribution to PPL research in and beyond Europe.
Tasks and Activities of WG4:
1. Create a comprehensive terminology for PPL policies and their uptake.
2. Publication in a Scientific Journal concerning the measurement of PPL in PPL research.
3. Create a comprehensive report on PPL policy design elements in European countries.
4. Make a session proposal for a sociological conference in 2023, together with WG1
