Partner Eugenie Nunes and Junior Associate Marije Ozinga from Dentons Boekel have contributed to the World Bank Group's report “Women, Business and the Law 2019”.

You can find a paperless copy of the report at http://wbl.worldbank.org/en/reports.

To gain new insights into how women's employment and entrepreneurship choices are affected by legal gender discrimination, this study examines 10 years of data on equal opportunity and economic outcomes through an index structured around economic decisions women make as they go through different stages of their working lives.

Eugenie Nunes: “it was an honor to contribute together with Marije to the Dutch part of the study and to give insight in the Dutch aspects. Looking at the global outcome: the impact of legal gender discrimination deserves continuous monitoring and action to make a change actually happen”
