About the Event
Gender equality has an important place in the policies of the European Commission. The three objectives: gender equality in scientific careers; gender balance in decision-making; and integration of the gender dimension into the content of research and innovation, are reinforced through a more unified approach. “Gender Equality Plans” are mandatory for public organisations, research organisations and higher education establishments starting from the 2022 calls onwards.
The online event was held on October 25th, between 11:00-13:30 IST / 10:00-12:30 CET.
