Gender Equality

All applications for funding, regardless of the amount requested, must include a gender equalities statement by addressing the following questions in the application form:

  1. Have measures been put in place to ensure equal and meaningful opportunities for people of different genders to be involved throughout the project? This includes the development of the project, the participants of the research and innovation, and the beneficiaries of the research and innovation.
  2. The expected impact of the project (benefits and losses) on people of different genders, both throughout the project and beyond.
  3. The impact on the relations between people of different genders and people of the same gender. For example, changing roles and responsibilities in households, society, economy, politics, power, etc. – How will any risks and unintended negative consequences on gender equality be avoided or mitigated against, and monitored?
  4. Are there any relevant outcomes and outputs being measured, with data disaggregated by age and gender (where disclosed)?
