D7.7. First FOREU2 Report. Practices and measures taken/to be taken to ensure the mainstreaming of the gender dimension in R&I long-term strategies

Abstract

This joint deliverable aims at addressing the issue of Gender Equality in R&I via case studies taken from 16 H2020 SwafS projects awarded to European University Alliances. The purpose is to share measures (already implemented or ongoing) at university or at Alliances levels to ensure the mainstreaming of Gender Equality in R&I long-term strategies. The case studies serve as good practices to inspire individual universities and Alliances to make continuous progress in this area. The deliverable first presents an overview of the participant universities and of the policy framework for Gender Equality within R&I institutions in particular and more globally within the European Union. Each case study is then described in detail. Finally, the last section outlines the main findings drawn out from all case studies and offers recommendations for possible measures to be implemented to improve the mainstreaming of Gender Equality in R&I.
