Wild Swans, the Chinese family saga, has always been one of my favorite books.
 I am really excited I will be meeting the author in Turin in March. Jung Chang will deliver the keynote at the Women & Work conference, organised by the European Training Foundation.
I am afraid… I will have to do the tacky thing and… ask her for an autograph for my father who also loves Wild Swans.
Preparations for the conference are going at full speed. We have just launched a discussion platform on ning.
 If you care and blog about women in education and employment or if you do projects/research/policy work/etc. in this area, you are welcome to join us at Women and Work 2010.
You might also be interested in two White Papers the European Training Foundation published on women and work in Egypt and Jordan.
We have just started a discussion on women in the informal sector and the need for an inclusive definition of work. Do you have one? Would you like to share it with us?
