Inhalt: The Ljubljana Declaration refers to shared European values and calls on Member States and other countries to fully acknowledge gender mainstreaming as a horizontal principle and jointly work on improvement in six priority areas of gender equality:
Ensure fair, open, inclusive and gender equal career paths in research, and consider intersectional perspectives on gender inequalities;
Facilitate mutual learning opportunities through form-follows-function robust governance;
Employ existing and newly developed tools, such as Gender Equality Plans, to facilitate systemic institutional change and remove institutional barriers;
Address and counteract gender-based violence;
Support active monitoring and evaluation to ensure continuous improvement; and
Leverage synergies to enhance gender equality achievements within the European Research Area, but also within complementary fields such as the European Higher Education Area, Cohesion policy funds, innovation ecosystems, as well as in international cooperation.
The Declaration was drafted ”bottom up”, with the support of the current and upcoming Trio Presidencies European Research Area and Innovation Committee (ERAC) Standing Working Group on Gender in Research and Innovation (SWG GRI) representatives.
