Intersection at Shift GEAR Conference

Intersection’s president Aleksandra Drecun participated at “Shift GEAR – Mainstreaming gender equality into academic and research organisations” Conference in Brussels.

This high level event brought together around 170 stakeholders and decision makers in socio-economic and research policies to reflect on the situation of women and men in academic and research organisations, share their experience and together generate commitment for change – by shifting the gear and transforming the institutions more gender equal.

Conference results will support EU policy objectives, in particular the implementation of the European Research Area Roadmap 2015-2020, Horizon 2020 as well as Strategic engagement for gender equality 2016-2019.
