In line with the European Research Area (ERA) policy, the guidelines set by Horizon Europe as well as the national and international institutional framework on gender equality, the GSRI drafted the Gender Equality Action Plan (GEAP), comprising five axes, which reflect the GSRI priorities regarding the promotion of gender equality. The Action Plan sets out strategic goals, actions and timetables, designates competent officers and defines progress-monitoring indicators for each axis.
The 1st edition of the GEAP concerned the period 2022-2025. The current 2nd edition concerns the period 2022-2027 and is a revision of the 1st GEAP, in order to better respond to the environment of the General Secretariat for Research and Innovation and in accordance with the comments of the Gender Equality Committee (GEC) established within the General Secretariat for Research and Innovation. The 2nd edition of the GEAP was approved by the decision of the Secretary General for Research and Innovation, protocol no.: 60127/30-07-2025 (ΑΔΑ: 6ΗΖΡ46ΝΛΣΞ-ΒΜ2).
It must be pointed out that the GEAP is fully aligned with the 2021-2025 National Action Plan for Gender Equality (NAPGE) drawn up by the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, which covers Research and Innovation actions launched by the Ministry of Development.
The GEAP was developed and is monitored by the GSRI Research and Innovation Policy Planning and Programming Directorate Department C – Innovation Action Planning and is available here.
