Short description

Free registration before February 14th, 2023 here

As the project implementation comes to an end, the efforts and achievements of project partners in fostering and promoting gender equality in research and academia through the development of Gender Equality Plans (GEP) should be celebrated.

Invited are GE practitioners, researchers, innovation leaders and policymakers to join for SPEAR'S final conference on Wednesday, March 1st, 2023! It will be a semi-hybrid event. The physical session is hosted in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is possible to attend the opening and the first session online as it will be web-streamed.

The theme of the conference is: ‘The future of (gender) equality, inclusivity and democratic values in European Academia: Practices, prerequisites, pushback and prospectives’.

Increasingly, GE is understood as part of a broader perspective which must necessarily include and integrate a wider understanding of inclusivity. Furthermore, an expanded concept of equality – GE+ – is a transversal issue in democracy and sustainability.  The conference will highlight the achievements of SPEAR and our sister initiatives and explore their impact on the wider context of gender equality, inclusivity and democracy – and indeed how these topics and actors can mutually enhance and strengthen each other across Europe and beyond.
