The third session of IFT\u2019s EDI training<\/strong> series will take place in the Blue Room on March 19 @ 11:00<\/strong>, with the talk:  \u2018Gender Perspective in Science and Research<\/strong>\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract<\/strong>: In recent years, integrating a gender perspective into science and research has become a key priority within the European Research Area and international research policies. Beyond promoting equal opportunities, the gender dimension contributes to improving the quality, relevance, and impact of scientific knowledge.
This seminar will introduce key concepts and definitions related to gender equality in order to provide a conceptual framework for the main principles guiding gender-sensitive research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will explore the importance of incorporating gender perspectives at different stages of the research process, from research design and methodology to the analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of results. The seminar will also highlight current European policies and frameworks that promote gender equality in research institutions, including Gender Equality Plans and the integration of the gender dimension in research proposals, with the aim of supporting researchers in integrating gender perspectives into their scientific work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This seminar\u00a0aligns with the objectives of the scientific outreach and culture component outlined in the Severo Ochoa project (CEX2020-001007-S, funded by MCIN\/AEI\/10.13039\/501100011033). In addition to scientific excellence, this project highlights the center\u2019s commitment to a strong program of training and outreach activities with high social impact. In this context, organizing training activities on equality, diversity, and inclusion helps to reinforce the role of the IFT as an institution committed to social responsibility and the continuous improvement of the scientific environment. This seminar provides tools to analyze the structural barriers present in the scientific field, particularly in STEM disciplines such as theoretical physics, aligning with the objectives of attracting and retaining diverse talent that foster an inclusive scientific environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
