prior to the project start there was a clear expectation that there would be a majority of male participants this assumption was based on the observation that by the onset of the project in there was a situation in which many unskilled men had to find new types of jobs due to the financial crisis it has turned out in the process however that womens unemployment increased which has led to a gradual increase in the number of women on the teams this means that the initial expectation that most men would take up the offer has been replaced by an even gender distribution so that according to selfassessments of the project there is a distribution between the sexes
