 # Conclusion
 
-The section with conclude with reflections on the implications of findings for policy.
+The preceding study undertook a systematic scoping review of the literature on inequalities in the world of work.
+It focused on the variety of approaches to policy interventions, from institutional to structural to more agency-driven programmes,
+and highlighted the inequalities targeted, analysed in subsequent study, their methods and limitations,
+to arrive at a picture of which lays out the strengths and weaknesses of current approaches.
+
+Wide gaps exist between the research on existing topics within the areas and intersections of inequalities in the world of work.
+First, while regionally research on such inequalities seems relatively evenly distributed,
+focus prevalence on individual inequalities varies widely.
+
+Research into interventions preventing income inequality are still the dominant form of measured outcomes,
+which makes sense for its prevailing usefulness through a variety of indicators and its use to investigate both vertical and horizontal inequalities.
+However, care should be taken not to over-emphasize the reliance on income inequality outcomes: 
+they can obscure intersections with other inequalities, 
+or diminish the perceived importance of tackling other inequalities themselves, if not directly measurable through income.
+Thus, while interventions attempt to tackle the inequality from a variety of institutional, structural and agency-oriented approaches already,
+this could be further enhanced by putting a continuous focus on the closely intertwined intersectional nature of the issue.
+
+Gender inequality is an almost equally considered dimension in the interventions, 
+a reasonable conclusion due to the inequality's global ubiquity and persistence.
+Most gender-oriented policy approaches tackle it directly alongside income inequality outcomes,
+especially viewed through gender pay gaps and economic (dis-)empowerment,
+tackling it from backgrounds of structural or agency-driven interventions.
+While both approaches seem fruitful in different contexts, few interventions strive to provide a holistic approach which combines the individual-level with macro-impacts, 
+tackling both institutional-structural issues while driving concerns of agency simultaneously.
+
+Spatial inequalities are primarily viewed through rural-urban divides, 
+concerning welfare, opportunities and employment probabilities.
+Spatially focused interventions primarily tackle infrastructural issues which should be an effective avenue since most positive interventions are focused on the structural dimension of the inequality.
+However, too many interventions, especially focused on reducing income inequalities,
+still do not take spatial components fully into view,
+potentially leading to worse outcomes for inequalities along the spatial dimension.
+
+Disabilities are rarely viewed through lenses other than employment opportunities.
+While most interventions already focus on dimensions of strengthening agency and improved integration or reintegration of individuals with disabilities into the world of work,
+a wider net needs to be cast with future research focusing on developing regions and the effects of more institutional-structural approaches before clearer recommendations can be given based on existing evidence.
+
+Ethnicity and migration provide dimensions of inequalities which are, while more evenly distributed regionally,
+still equally underdeveloped in research on evidence-based intervention impacts.
+Currently, there is a strong focus on institutional-structural approaches,
+which seems to follow the literature in what is required for effective interventions.
+However, similarly to research on inequalities based on disability, there are clear gaps in research
+on ethnicity and especially migration, before clearer pictures of what works can develop.
+
+The intertwined nature of inequalities, once recognized, requires intervention approaches which heed multi-dimensional issues and can flexibly intervene and subsequently correctly measure their relative effectiveness.
+To do so, perspectives need to shift and align towards a new, more intersectional approach which can incorporate both a wider array of methodological approaches between purely quantitative and qualitative research,
+while relying on indicators for measurement which are flexible yet overlapping enough to encompass such a broadened perspective.
