The article reveals the problem of readiness of young women for motherhood in the context of exacerbation of socio-pedagogical problems of the family as a social institute because in addition of the sciences which have a direct relation to it (medicine, genetics, demographics, etc.) it has become a subject of study of humanities, including social pedagogy. The purpose of the article is to justify theoretically and explore experimentally the social and educational aspects of readiness of young women for motherhood. The researchers who have studied the above mentioned problem believe that readiness for motherhood has both a strong instinctive basis and is a personal quality, which reflects the cumulative experience of the relationship of women with their parents, family members, husband and others. Thus, indicators of readiness for motherhood are: communicative experience of young women from their early childhood; experiences of a child who is not yet born; installing the strategy of raising a child. In order to ascertain the readiness of young women for childbirth, we have conducted a study at prenatal hospital. Respondents were young women aged 18 to 25 years, waiting for the birth. The following methods were used: "Changing parental attitudes and reactions» (PARY), form of psychological readiness for motherhood, the questionnaire "My attitude to parenthood and family life." Results of the study allow us to conclude that young women are basically ready to take on the role of a mother and realize the importance of this role in marriage; their attitude to pregnancy is accompanied by positive emotions; they have a firm conviction regarding child-rearing style, based on previous experience of interaction with their parents. However, there is a need for professional help for young women who are going to have a baby, to prepare them to perform educational functions by qualified professionals, including today must be a social pedagogue (social worker), since 29% of respondents had negative feelings in connection with pregnancy, because knew that it was untimely and should decide to give birth or not.

Development narratives posit that through entrepreneurship, young women can become empowered economic agents, instrumental to the development of their communities. As feminist scholars have pointed out, these narratives serve to homogenise, depoliticise, and ahistoricise the category ‘young woman’ and to naturalise the inequitable global structures in which it is embedded. To universalise young womanhood is to ignore the ways in which young women's lives are shaped by their cultural contexts and by structural constraints. As a result, most development schemes targeting young women as entrepreneurs fail to recognize the ways in which engaging in entrepreneurship can reinforce rather than break down gendered differences and vulnerabilities. Using life herstory methods grounded in feminist methodologies, this article tells the stories of young women coffee house owners in Wukro, Ethiopia, revealing some of the often-overlooked sociocultural issues facing young women entrepreneurs in development contexts. It argues that putting young women at the centre of policy-making processes is a crucial starting point for promoting inclusive and transformative development.

This study investigates the perspectives of young women with disabilities in Jordan, focusing on their self-regulation. 16 young women, aged 18-22, with visual (VI), hearing (HI) impairments and physical disability (PD), were recruited using a snowballing technique. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews, which were analysed thematically. Two main themes emerged where findings show that disability affects self-regulation where there was an overlap between local cultural perspectives in understanding disability of young women, disability and gender in understanding self-regulation of women with disabilities. Disability and gender also influence women with disabilities self-regulation with respect to self-learning, setting goals, self-evaluation, self-monitoring, making decisions and self-reinforcement. Findings will add to the current debate and efforts to understand disabilities in women and lay the groundwork for initiating a campaign in Jordan concentrating on the importance of self-regulation in young women with disabilities.

The goal of the study was to show the ways and effects of young women’s activities aimed to improve their image, resulting in the achievement of an ideal figure. 180 young women were interviewedusing the Survey Questionnaire. The obtained data showed difficulties in an objective assessment of the image of one’s own body. The undertaken corrective measures were usually ineffective hence the women investigated became “trapped by an almost obsession” of their own making, aimed to modify their body.

Celem badań było ukazanie sposobów i skutków działań młodych kobiet zmierzających do poprawy własnego wizerunku, prowadzącego do osiągnięcia idealnych kształtów. Badaniem za pomocą Kwestionariusza Ankiety poddano 180 młodych kobiet. Uzyskane dane wskazały na trudności w obiektywnej ocenie obrazu własnego ciała. Podejmowane działania o charakterze korekcyjnym najczęściej były nieskuteczne, stąd badane kobiety zaplątały się we własne wypracowane przez siebie „szpony niemalże opętania”, zmierzające do modyfikacji ciała.

The article discusses the professional and family choices of young women entering adulthood in the context of the dynamically changing labour market in Poland at the turn of the century and modernization of family life patterns. The analysis is based on the concepts of transition from youth to adulthood, labour market changes in post-modern society and work-lifebalance. The empirical findings are based on the qualitative results obtained in the NCN project “Public Policies for Full Adulthood in Poland”. The conclusions on the differentiation of choices between professional and family roles are exemplified by four quasi biographical interviews with thirty-yearold female residents of Łódź and one of the districts of Łódź Province.

Przedmiotem rozważań w artykule są wybory zawodowe i rodzinne młodych kobiet wchodzących w dorosłość w warunkach dynamicznie zmieniającego się rynku pracy w Polsce przełomu wieków i modernizacji wzorów życia rodzinnego. Ramy analiz stanowią koncepcje tranzycji z młodości do dorosłości, zmiany na rynku pracy w społeczeństwie ponowoczesnym i worklife-balance. Empiryczną podstawę rozważań stanowi część jakościowych wyników uzyskanych w projekcie NCN Polityki publiczne na rzecz pełnej dorosłości w Polsce. Egzemplifikacją wniosków o zróżnicowaniu wyborów między rolą zawodową a rolą rodzinną są cztery wywiady quasi biograficzne trzydziestoletnich mieszkanek Łodzi i jednego z powiatów województwa łódzkiego.

W ciągu ostatnich dwóch dekad w Unii Europejskiej nastąpiła znacząca poprawa w zakresie udziału kobiet w edukacji i na rynku pracy. Niemniej jednak nadal istnieje wiele wyzwań związanych z poprawą sytuacji tej kategorii społecznej. Nadmierne obciążenie obowiązkami domowymi stanowi główną barierę dla aktywności edukacyjnej i zawodowej kobiet, zwłaszcza młodych matek. Do czynników ograniczających aktywność zawodową kobiet, oprócz niemożności pogodzenia życia zawodowego i osobistego, należy niedopasowanie wykształcenia do wyzwań współczesnego rynku pracy. Mimo że większość osób z wyższym wykształceniem stanowią kobiety, planując swoją karierę zawodową, wybierają one zwykle mniej atrakcyjne kierunki studiów, które nie są związane z zawodami przyszłości. W tekście przedstawiono wyniki analizy badań dotyczących potrzeb i oczekiwań młodych kobiet (głównie matek) w zakresie rozwoju kompetencji zawodowych. Wyniki pokazują, w jakich rodzajach zajęć podnoszących kompetencje uczestniczą badane kobiety; jak oceniają skuteczność zajęć podnoszących ich kompetencje w obszarze zawodowym; jakie czynniki wpływają na decyzję kobiet o udziale w wybranej formie szkolenia; jakie są postawy otoczenia zewnętrznego badanych kobiet wobec ich udziału w szkoleniach; jakie problemy napotykają badane kobiety w związku z udziałem w szkoleniach podnoszących ich kompetencje zawodowe. Skupiono się na podobieństwach i różnicach w wypowiedziach młodych kobiet/matek z Polski, Litwy, Hiszpanii i Cypru, które uczestniczyły w międzynarodowym projekcie „Mommypreneurs”.

Over the last two decades, there has been a significant improvement in the participation of women in education and the labour market in the European Union. Nevertheless, there are still many challenges to improving the situation of women. The excessive burden of household duties is a major barrier to the educational and professional activity of women, especially young women with small children. Apart from the inability to balance work and personal life, other factors limiting women’s professional activity include the mismatch between their education and the challenges of the modern labour market. Although the majority of people with higher education are women, when planning their careers, they tend to choose less attractive courses of study which are not linked to the professions of the future. The text presents the results of an analysis of research on the needs and expectations of young women (mothers) regarding the development of professional competences. The results show in which types of activities raising competences the surveyed women participate; how they evaluate the effectiveness of activities raising their competences in the professional area; what factors influence the decision of women to participate in the selected form of training; what are the attitudes of the external environment of the surveyed women towards their participation in training; what problems the surveyed women encounter in connection with participation in training raising their professional competences. The focus was on similarities and differences in statements of young women (mothers) from Poland, Lithuania, Spain and Cyprus who participating in the international project Mommypreneurs.
