NFKJ Neuron Award for Filip Pertold
November 11, 2013
Filip Pertold was granted the NEURON 2013 Award for young Economics researchers under the age of 40. His research will study how motherhood influences the career lives of Czech women. During his research, Filip will compare the career advancement of Czech women with women from other European countries, primarily Denmark.
He builds on fact that most day care facilities were shut down in the Czech Republic after 1989, and new plans for maternity leave emerged. The new plans have been found to discourage some women from returning to the workforce from an economic standpoint. Filip’s research will concentrate on questions such as how this impacts women’s choice of field of study, their career advancement and wages, and their opportunities to work in positions of leadership.
