Mobilisation network launch: Keep gender equality in R&I

16 May 2025

Back to news

With a sense of urgency, we would like to share with you that GENDERACTIONplus is launching a new mobilisation network for future advocacy to protect and advance inclusive gender equality in European research and innovation.  

While the project is coming to a close at the end of May, our work continues, and we are inviting you to be part of it. 

This network will serve as a rapid response and coordination platform. It will: 

  • Keep members periodically informed about key policy developments, including changes to Horizon Europe and negotiations on its successor 
  • Share alerts when public consultations are opened or risks emerge to gender equality provisions 
  • Coordinate collective responses, including joint statements, consultation submissions and advocacy actions 
  • Connect stakeholders across Europe who are committed to defending progress and resisting backsliding 

Whether you’re a gender equality practitioner, policy expert, researcher or academic, member of civil society, or part of a public authority or a research funding organisation, we invite you to join us.

We need a strong, connected, and vocal community — and we need it now. 

Learn more about GENDERACTIONplus activities and new developments and highlights about gender equality policies in R&I in the EU. The newsletter is published twice a year.
