The European Commission recognizes and encourages the implementation of GEPs as a means to address and rectify gender imbalances among staff within these institutions. The adoption of GEPs has become a requirement for eligibility to receive funding through programs like the Horizon Europe Research Framework.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>What are the goals?<\/h3>\n<p>The primary objectives of a Gender Equality Plan are as follows:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Impact Assessments\/Audits<\/strong>: GEPs involve conducting assessments or audits of existing procedures and practices within the organization to identify gender biases and inequalities. These assessments help in understanding how gender-related issues manifest within the institution&#8217;s policies, processes, and practices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Correcting Gender Bias<\/strong>: Based on the findings of the impact assessments, GEPs aim to implement innovative strategies that counteract gender biases and promote a more balanced and equitable environment. These strategies may involve changes to recruitment practices, career advancement opportunities, work-life balance policies, and more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Monitoring and Evaluation<\/strong>: GEPs establish objectives and processes for monitoring progress towards gender equality. This is typically done through the use of indicators and metrics that track the representation of genders across various roles and levels within the organization. Regular evaluation helps to assess the effectiveness of implemented measures and make necessary adjustments.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Euricse&#8217;s Gender Equality Plan<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Gender Equality Plan outlined herein serves two primary objectives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>first, to apprise the current gender equality landscape within the organization;<\/li>\n<li>second, to chart a strategic path for its enhancement over the forthcoming three years, complete with well-defined objectives and fitting actions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This document will include concrete measures designed to promote a culture of gender equality and inclusion in <strong>four strategic areas<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\u00a0Work life balance and organizational culture<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Gender balance in management, recruitment and career progression<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Integrating gender in research and events<\/li>\n<li>Combating gender bias and harassment<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>These measures are intended to foster a respectful environment that values diversity and actively<strong> combats all forms of discrimination<\/strong> and <strong>reducing gender inequality and combating stereotypes. <\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/euricse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Euricse_GENDER-EQUALITY-PLAN.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-19959 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/euricse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/document_120058-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"90\" height=\"90\" srcset=\"https:\/\/euricse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/document_120058-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/euricse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/document_120058-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/euricse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/document_120058.png 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 90px) 100vw, 90px\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/euricse.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Euricse_GENDER-EQUALITY-PLAN.pdf\">Euricse&#8217;s Gender Equality Plan (2022-2025)<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Useful Resources:<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1522.eu\/\"><strong>National anti-violence and stalking helpline<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Call\u00a0<strong>1522<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Visit the official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1522.eu\/?lang=en#\">homepage<\/a>\u00a0 to chat with an operator \u2013 \u00a0hit the \u2018open chat\u2019 button.<\/li>\n<li>Download the free 1522 app \u2013 once on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.1522.eu\/?lang=en#\">homepage<\/a>, select the Android or IOs option on the top right of the website.<\/li>\n<li>Find a local association where to seek physical support\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.1522.eu\/mappatura-1522\/\">here.\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The helpline is free of charge and active 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
