International Women's Day. Let’s celebrate!
International Women's Day, celebrated on 8 March, is an occasion for an even louder reminder of the importance of gender equality in building the prosperity and well-being of societies.
Events
Together against gender-based violence
Community of Practice for Gender Equality in Central and Eastern Europe supports all actions taken to fight for a more friendly academia. In February we joined the #SafeAcademia campaign on Twitter, initialized within the GENDERACTIONplus project.
Gender studies and activism – conference in Vilnius
In November, Lithuanian members of our community co-organised a very interesting international conference entitled Gender studies and activism 2022: (Re-/de-/-?) institutionalization in changing realities.
On educational component of Polish GEPs
During the November meeting of our Community of Practice, Jan Galkowski from the University of Rzeszow was talking about the educational component of gender equality plans (GEPs) prepared and implemented by Polish higher education institutions (HEIs).
Our conference activity
As members of the Gender Equality in Central and Eastern Europe Community of Practice, we contribute to numerous scientific conferences and other events by presenting our research conducted within the framework of various projects.
Spring and summer meetings
Over the spring and summer months, as the GEinCEE Community of Practice we hosted (and of course participated in!) several online meetings/webinars. Delving into the topic of university sustainability and preparing gender equality plans in Czechia and Slovenia has been thrilling!
Recent developments in the GEinCEE CoP: towards sustainable future
Early Autumn 2021 was intense for the GEinCEE CoP, filled with meetings, including a webinar on GEPs and a series of trainings.
GEinCEE Community of Practice Event ‘Towards Inclusive Gender Equality Plans’
Gender equality in Higher Education and Research policy is given a growing attention as the data confirms persisting gender inequalities in science.

Online debate on „The role of diagnosis in shaping an equal university” with the participation of the GEinCEE CoP members
Why should we conduct research on discrimination and equal treatment in academia? What should we investigate further and by what methods? Can we design Gender Equality Plan without a proper diagnosis of situation at the institution and of employees’ needs?
