Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This white paper collects evidence and joint recommendations for policy-making on gender equality, diversity and scientific excellence, in a multidimensional approach. The content of the white paper also entails the joint statement issued by RESET top managers. This white paper aligns with the RESET project’s goals of driving change through Gender Equality Plans (GEPs), training to address bias and promote equality, transforming institutional cultures, co-designing new processes, and integrating gender into research. Highlighting methodologies and actions implemented in seven universities, it provides insights and tools for HEIs, Research Performing Organisations (RPOs), and policymakers aiming to advance gender equality and support the ERA policy agenda. This deliverable may be subject to final acceptance by the European Commission.
