Context

The EIT Gender Equality Policy is implemented through a Gender Equality Plan (GEP), a roadmap of targeted measures and actions to promote gender equality and strengthen gender mainstreaming with a transversal approach. Its legal basis derives from Horizon Europe, which establishes gender equality as a cross-cutting priority, and it is linked to the European Commission's European Strategy for Gender Equality 2020-2025 and the Council of the EU's December 2020 conclusions on the New European Research Area (ERA).

Objectives

To eliminate gender inequality within organisations through institutional and cultural change, gradually broadening commitments to intersecting socio-economic inequalities, including those based on ethnicity or disability.

Activities

A GEP is a set of commitments and actions promoting gender equality through institutional and cultural change. To comply with the Horizon Europe GEP eligibility criterion, a GEP must meet four mandatory process-related requirements.

Conclusions

The approach embeds gender mainstreaming as a cross-cutting priority in EU-funded research and innovation, reflecting a wider EU push to improve women's entrepreneurship and leadership data and outcomes.
