Inkeri Tanhua

My research interests include gender equality and diversity at work, non-binary gender, gender and technology, intersectionality, and intersection of gender and migration at work.

In my PhD work, I examine the reasons for educational and occupational gender segregation, particularly in the context of vocational education. The first article that is part of my dissertation was recently published in NORA Nordic Journal of Feminist and Gender Research with the title “The Gendering of Technology Education: minority Ethnic Students’ Experiences of a Women-Dominated Vocational Dental Technology Programme”.

In addition to my PhD work, I have conducted several reports about gender equality and diversity for the Finnish Government and participated in various national and international research projects. My earlier educational qualifications include M.S.Sc. with a major in gender studies from Linköping University and M.Sc. (Econ.) from Turku School of Economics.

I’m a co-coordinator of Hanken Gender Research Group (GRG) that meets every second Monday of the month, either online or f2f at Hanken. Contact me if you want to join the e-mail list!
