Description
Horizon Europe establishes Gender Equality as a cross-cutting principle and aspires to eliminate gender inequality and its intersection with other socio-economic inequalities through R&I systems, including and addressing unconscious biases and systemic structural barriers.
In order to achieve Gender Equality, the integration of the gender dimension into R&I content is mandatory and is a requirement set by default across all Work Programmes, destinations, and topics of Horizon Europe.
Addressing the gender dimension in research and innovation thus entails considering sex and gender in the whole R&I process: from the definition of the title to the methodology, the sample, the analysis, the language used and the dissemination of results.
The gender composition of the team and the existence of a Gender Equality Plan in the institution are tiebreaker and an eligibility criterium respectively.
