  • promoting diversity in the higher education sector;
  • strengthening cooperation between the entities involved.

The project is to be implemented in 2022–2024. The coordinator of the GEPARD project is Prof. Ewa Jarosz, the Vice-Rector for Staff Development. The administrative coordinator of the GEPARD project is Marta Margiel, PhD, from the Faculty of Humanities.
