Book "Invisible women" by Carolina Perez with Professor Daniela Schmitt
2024-03-08 12:00 - 12:30 UTC | Teresa e Alexandre Soares dos Santos Library, Campus de Carcavelos, Rua da Holanda 1, Carcavelos, 2775-405, Portugal
On this first Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Dialog @ Library we will join Professor Daniela Schimitt for a read of “Invisible women” by Carolina Perez.

Data is fundamental to the modern world. From economic development to health care to education and public policy, we rely on numbers to allocate resources and make crucial decisions. But because so much data fails to take into account gender, because it treats men as the default and women as atypical, bias and discrimination are baked into our systems. And women pay tremendous costs for this insidious bias: in time, in money, and often with their lives.
Celebrated feminist advocate Caroline Criado Perez investigates this shocking root cause of gender inequality in Invisible Women. Examining the home, the workplace, the public square, the doctor’s office, and more, Criado Perez unearths a dangerous pattern in data and its consequences on women’s lives. Product designers use a “one-size-fits-all” approach to everything from pianos to cell phones to voice recognition software, when in fact this approach is designed to fit men. Cities prioritize men’s needs when designing public transportation, roads, and even snow removal, neglecting to consider women’s safety or unique responsibilities and travel patterns. And in medical research, women have largely been excluded from studies and textbooks, leaving them chronically misunderstood, mistreated, and misdiagnosed.
Built on hundreds of studies in the United States, in the United Kingdom, and around the world, and written with energy, wit, and sparkling intelligence, this is a groundbreaking, highly readable exposé that will change the way you look at the world. (Source: Amazon.com)

Junte-se ao Leadership for Impact Knowledge Center para o lançamento do livro “Manifesto para Um Capitalismo Humanista”, uma obra estimulante que repensa a relação entre o Estado, as empresas e a sociedade civil.

O livro é coautorado por Miguel Pina e Cunha e Milton de Sousa, ambos membros do Leadership for Impact Knowledge Center e vozes reconhecidas nas áreas de liderança e estudos organizacionais. Juntamente com Adolfo Mesquita Nunes, apresentam uma visão que desafia debates comuns — como “mais ou menos Estado” ou “riqueza ou desigualdade” — propondo antes um novo paradigma, onde a colaboração entre setores é essencial para o progresso humano. O livro será apresentado por Susana Peralta.
