GENDER‑RESPONSIVE BUDGETING AND EVALUATION PLATFORM

Objective

GLOW designed to promote gender-responsive research and innovation by creating a unified governance system that links budgeting, research methods, and reporting based on evidence. The project directly addresses the necessity for standardised principles, methodologies, tools, and reporting mechanisms that empower research-performing organisations, research-funding entities, higher education institutions, research infrastructures, and public bodies to enhance inclusive and intersectional gender equality within the European Research Area.
The primary function of GLOW is a closed-loop governance system that connects three areas: funds, method, and evidence. GLOW will create a standard way to do gender-responsive budgeting and spending tracking in research and innovation. This will include a shared Codebook, lifecycle tagging logic, mapping rules for different types of accounting systems, and a framework for portfolio-level indicators. GLOW will create a Gender Dimension Assessment Framework and an explainable Gender Analysis Score workflow to look at how sex, gender, and bounded intersectionality are included in research proposals, project deliverables, and final reports. GLOW will also provide a system for monitoring and reporting that includes a reporting layer that is safe for disclosure and open to the public. This will help with transparency, accountability, and learning about policy. A collaboration platform that includes budgeting, tracking spending, evaluating documents, audit trails, and indicator computation will be used to put these methodological and technical assets into practice. GLOW will turn fragmented practices into a governance model that can be scaled up and checked by combining standard setting, digital infrastructure, explainable evaluation, and structured stakeholder engagement. This will improve research excellence, inclusiveness, and socially relevant innovation across Europe.
