The PLOTINA Manifesto: Notes of a careful fight
The European Union promotes equal opportunities between men and women as an overarching asset. In terms of research and innovation, support for gender equality is an essential priority, aimed at ensuring the strengthening of the European Research Area.
Under Horizon 2020, equality between men and women is promoted by supporting the organizational change of research institutions and by integrating the gender dimension in the content and planning of research and innovation activities.
Responsible Research Innovation attributes a leading role to gender issues in identifying new research perspectives, in asking new research questions and, more generally, in promoting an improvement in the quality of research.
The seminar was held in the Aula Magna, Piaggia dell'Università 2, Macerata on 9 February 2016.
SPEAKER: Prof. Tullia Gallina Toschi, University of Bologna
