Unravelling equality: The combined impact of spending cuts on women

Mary-Ann Stephenson

Local Economy, 2012, vol. 27, issue 8, 859-863

Abstract: This article summarises the findings of Unravelling Equality: An Equality and Human Rights Impact Assessment of the Spending Cuts on Women in Coventry . It highlights the disproportionate impact that public sector spending cuts will have on women and argues that for some particularly vulnerable women the combined impact of the cuts will damage their human rights.
