Descrizione del progetto
Incoraggiare l’uguaglianza di genere nella ricerca e nell’innovazione
La promozione dell’uguaglianza di genere è una delle priorità dell’UE. In linea con tale priorità, il progetto MINDtheGEPs, finanziato dall’UE, si propone di creare piani di uguaglianza di genere nelle organizzazioni di ricerca, tra cui le università, per incentivare un cambiamento sistemico a favore dell’uguaglianza. Il lavoro svolto dal progetto contribuirà a incrementare il numero di donne coinvolte negli organi decisionali e di gestione in ambito universitario e aprirà la strada a un mediatore per l’uguaglianza di genere. Inoltre, aumenterà i processi di monitoraggio delle formazioni aperte e delle ammissioni, incoraggiando le pari opportunità nella ricerca e le promozioni amministrative. L’attenzione del progetto si concentrerà sulle disuguaglianze di genere in cinque diversi paesi con regimi tradizionali in diverse organizzazioni di ricerca.
Obiettivo
"MINDtheGEPs takes a multidisciplinary multidimensional approach to challenging gender unbalances across five different countries with still traditional gender regimes (Italy, Spain, Serbia, Ireland, Poland) and across various types of Research Performing Organisations: 4 public universities (Turin, Tralee, Gdansk, Jagiellonian) and 1 public non-academic research institute (CNR); 1 academic (Belgrade) and 1 private technological institute center (Galicia). The consortium, led by the University of Turin’s CIRSDe, comprises also three non-implementing organizations bringing complementary expertise in monitoring and evaluation (Knowledge and Innovation), research communication (Uppsala University) and scientific publishing (Elsevier). In order to promote systemic institutional change and following the “no data-no policy” principle, the project will map the existing data and, building on the tools developed within an ongoing research project of the project coordinator, will produce new quali-quantitative evidence. On this basis, both structural and cultural actions can be effectively designed. At cultural level, the project will organize a virtuous chain of trainings, starting from across-partners ""train the trainers"" workshops to within-partners laboratories addressed to young women, but, endorsing the approach of ""fixing the system not the women"", also to men and senior researchers. At structural level, the project will introduce work-family measures addressed also to men, equality targets in decision-making boards and gender-sensitive research. The establishment of proper figures and bodies creates conditions for the endurance of GEPs beyond the project’s life. A multidisciplinary team (also including key-persons in middle or top management), coupled with a multi-skilled Advisory Board (including relevant national authorities), and 4 professional associations both in STEMM and SSH, will contribute to a successful change in RPOs and in society at large."
