The project aimed to analyse the progress of member states in implementing gender equality in research and innovation through national plans and strategies for initiatives in the European Research Area. The objective of the project was to bridge the gap between the countries in the context of promoting women in science and innovation. The project adopted an analytical approach to the role of equality in science and innovation (strategic policy advice)—including in the context of the future framework programme—to the direction of the European Research Area, and to the establishment of open science and innovation.

The National Information Processing Institute provided:

  • gender aggregated data
  • interactive reports
  • a variety of visualisations
  • statistical details, including expert commentaries and methodology descriptions.

The data, prepared by analysts at OPI PIB, is presented in the form of dynamic reports as the Genderaction Data Dashboard:
