Don’t miss the first Gender in Physics Day on 27 January 2017 at the Globe of Science and Innovation. Registration is now open (limited places available!).

CERN, ESO and Nordforsk have joined forces to organise the Gender in Physics Day (GiPD) event on 27 January 2017, at CERN’s Globe of Science and Innovation. The aim of this one-day conference is to look at innovative activities promoting gender equality and to discuss gender-oriented policies and best practices in the European Research Area as well as the importance of building a solid network.

The conference is being organised in the framework of the EU project GENERA (Gender Equality Network in the European Research Area), funded by the Horizon 2020 framework. Various Research Performing Organisations (RPOs) and Research Funding Organisations (RFOs) are partners in the GENERA project, and CERN, ESO and Nordforsk are observers. They will contribute to the topic by focusing on and analysing the situation regarding gender equality in intergovernmental organisations of a similar nature.

The conference will include a series of overviews and plenary talks followed by workshops and round-table discussions on specific topics. It is aimed at participants ranging from junior and senior researchers to management-level personnel, policy-makers and various other stakeholders.

Are you interested in joining the conversation? Register now to take part!

Closing date: 24 January (limited number of places available!)
