The conference brought together relevant stakeholders to discuss the future priorities for inclusive gender equality in the European Research Area. This has been done against the backdrop of the results of GENDERACTIONplus benchmark studies on gender equality policy implementation in European research, which have identified ongoing challenges and gaps and highlighted advances achieved in recent years. The debates highlighted the need for advancing intersectional and inclusive approaches to gender equality policy, focusing on creating an inclusive research environment through institutional change and improving the quality and social relevance of research and innovation by integrating the gender dimension into its content research and innovation. The outcomes of the conference served to contribute to the debates on the future ERA policy agenda and, ultimately, the next European framework programme for research and innovation.

To inform the debates about further actions and measures at the conference, GENDERACTIONplus issued a position paper on the future of gender equality in the European Research Area.
