This user is a student editor in Wikipedia:Wiki_Ed/University_of_Chicago/Feminist_Economics_and_Public_Policy_(Spring_2016). Student assignments should always be carried out using a course page set up by the instructor. It is usually best to develop assignments in your sandbox. After evaluation, the additions may go on to become a Wikipedia article or be published in an existing article. |
I am currently an LL.M. student at the University of Chicago and graduate in June, 2016. I'm helping contribute to Wikipedia as part of my course on Feminist Economics and Public Policy. I have listed below a topic I am currently working on:
Gender Pay Gap in India
[edit]There exists a parent article on “Gender Pay Gap”, which includes a section wise list presenting this issue in multiple countries. However, there is no specific information on this issue in India. While some basic information and statistics regarding this topic have been presented under the sub-topic Labour participation and wages in the Wikipage on Gender Inequality in India, I intend to include more detailed information (including possible explanations offered by experts in the field as to why this problem arose and continues to exist) from potential sources listed below from an India specific context:
