At a European level, the promotion of gender equality in research and innovation is regarded as a key element, especially since the launch of the European Research Area (ERA) in the 2000s. Within the Communication, among the tools suggested to deal with existing gender inequalities, reference is made, for the first time, to the Gender Equality Plans (GEP).
Gender Equality Plans provide a set of actions aimed at preventing, reducing, and addressing gender imbalances and inequalities in research and innovation. In light of the last year’s adoption of GEPs by most of the Italian and European universities and research institutions, this call aims to make a first assessment, on the one hand by highlighting the potential, results, and processes set in motion thanks to the measures provided in the GEPs, and on the other hand by highlighting the aporias, challenges, and resistance regarding the implementation of the Plans.
We welcome empirical or theoretical contributions that critically address one or more of the following aspects:
