Common database for gender equality audit (GEA)

These datasets were produced under ATHENA WP2, which collected data to analyze the situation on gender equality (GE) at each consortium organization implementing a gender equality plan (GEP). The organizational data were collected through quantitative and qualitative indicators, which were clustered in 6 gender dimensions:

The pool of graduate talents

Gender balance in research

Gender balanced career advancement

Gender balance in decision making

Gender balanced working conditions

Gender balance in research outputs

The indicators framework and methodology for the GEA was developed by the Institute for Social Communication Research of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (UVSK SAV) team in cooperation with the University of Bucharest (UB) and University Jana Kochanowskiego in Kielce (UJK) teams. The ATHENA institutions started the process of data collection in March 2021.  Although the project consortium consists of various types of research organisations, the indicators reflect the RPO/HEI organisation’s circumstances primarily, as this type prevails among the partners. However, other types of organisation have been encouraged to collect the indicators adjusted to their conditions or indicate that the calculation of the indicators was not applicable (n/a).

All the information collected was reported in the deliverable D2.1, contributing to provide solid basis on the current status of GE at organizational level for the development and implementation of the ATHENA GEPs.
