| Dr. Sunhwa Lee earned her Ph.D. in sociology from the University of Chicago, where she focused on gender inequalities in East Asian labor markets (e.g., South Korea and Japan). At IWPR, she works on many projects that analyze data from national surveys. Her recent projects include research on the impact of disabilities on women’s work participation, and the importance of work supports on women’s job retention. Dr. Lee’s research also focuses on older women’s economic issues including Social Security preservation, access to pensions, employment, and poverty issues. Before joining IWPR, she was in faculty at the Sociology Department of American University, and taught courses on social/economic inequalities, family, and social research methods. |  |
