This book explores the multifaceted role of gender in contemporary society, focusing on its influence across art and cultural expression, entrepreneurial practices, and sustainability strategies. Based on contributions presented at the 10th Ipazia Workshop, the volume examines how art and culture serve as powerful tools for social inclusion, how gender dynamics shape innovation and entrepreneurship within the Made in Italy industries, and how emerging sustainability policies reflect a growing commitment to gender equality.
Adopting a multidisciplinary approach, the book investigates both conceptual frameworks and empirical evidence, addressing the challenges and opportunities that gender issues present in creative, economic, and reporting practices. The content is organized into three main sections: gender and inclusion in art and culture; gender dynamics in entrepreneurship and innovation; and gender equality in sustainability and disclosure.
This volume is intended for academics, researchers, and graduate students in gender studies, cultural studies, sustainability, and business innovation. It also appeals to policymakers, entrepreneurs, and cultural professionals seeking to understand the intersection of gender with creativity, economic development, and sustainable practices.
