EQUALITY IN RESEARCH AND INNOVATION

  information/initiatives/inspirations

 

The policy of equal opportunities should be considered in research and innovation (this is a recommendation for the whole European Research Area and a requirement, i.a., in projects co-funded under Horizon Europe). Both national and international researchers applying for and carrying out grants and research projects should take gender equality into account. The ability to take gender into consideration when analysing the research problem, selecting metrics, and responding to identified barriers is significant in this context.

Integrating the gender dimension into research and innovation provides an added value in terms of excellence, creativity, scientific capacity, and practical solutions applied in everyday life. It helps scientists question gender norms and stereotypes, as well as rethink standards and reference models. It leads to an in-depth understanding of the needs, behaviours and attitudes of different genders. It increases the social relevance of the knowledge, technology and innovation produced. It also contributes to producing goods and services that are better adapted to the needs of all audiences.
