objective 1:
Gender Equality Programme in Academia – Raising Diversity
Idea
GEPARD project’s assumption is to create conditions for equal opportunities between women and men in the academic environment. This goal will be achieved by developing, within an international consortium, a system of actions understood as an organisational policy leading, on the one hand, to the elimination of gender discrimination in the academic environment (both among employees and students) and, on the other hand, to an increase in the diversity of the academic sphere in order to take into account the gender perspective and data on it in every aspect of the university operations.
The project will be implemented in the international consortium composed of higher education institutions from Poland, Austria, Hungary, Cyprus, Malta and SME closely cooperating with academic entities from Italy. The consortium will be supported by the associated partners.
