Institute for Public Affairs (IVO) has issued a CD summarizing the results of the project Plus for Women 45+ (2005 – 2008).
The project was carried out as part of the EU Community Initiative EQUAL, which was financed by the European Social Fund.

1. Learning more about the life and work of women over 45 and examining gender and age stereotypes in Slovak society.
2. Disseminating research findings and making them available to target groups as well as to the general public.
3. Carrying out gender and age sensitive education as well as a social campaign to increase society’s gender and age sensitivity, to empower women over 45 and to strengthen their status on the labor market.
The project Plus for Women 45+ was implemented by a development partnership comprising of four Slovak organizations: the Institute for Public Affairs; the FOCUS agency; the EsFem civic association and the Hlava 98 civic association. The project was carried out under the leadership of
