Workshop series on gender aspects in research, multiple locations

The EU-funded 'Gender in Research - Toolkit and Training' project is offering a series of training workshops on how to integrate gender aspects into Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) research between September 2009 and November 2010.

These one-day training sessions are intended for anybody interested in rendering research gender-sensitive: researchers, project managers, National Contact Points, expert evaluators and others. The sessions will provide practical guidance on how the gender dimension can be integrated in research, using clear examples of how gender is relevant to existing FP7 projects.

Training sessions will take place at different locations across Europe and address different areas of research. The following dates have already been set:
- 29 September 2009, Brussels, Belgium: socio-economic sciences and humanities/transport;
- 1 October 2009, Budapest, Hungary: socio-economic sciences and humanities/science in society;
- 30 October 2009, Brussels, Belgium: health/food, agriculture and biotechnology;
- 24 November 2009, Budapest, Hungary: environment/international cooperation;
- 26 March 2010, Brussels, Belgium: socio-economic sciences and humanities/health.For further information, please visit:
