GENERA implementation8 Clause Samples

GENERA implementation8. The GENERA team is led by a female physics professor who was not involved in gender activities before. Having a strong gender institutionalization established in CNRS, it could be a challenge to establish a fruitful collaboration there. However, from an evaluator’s perspective it was assessed as important to link existing knowledge and experiences within the institution and develop it further. At the time of the interviews the GENERA project was not (yet) visible or known within CNRS and the focus of GENERA was still unclear. Another issue for the team was lack of support from HR people when collecting data and, in general, a limited availability of people to support the project. The next challenges were to: specify arguments about the benefits of GENERA within the institution; get support from the top management and CEO; to decide which measures should be implemented (and why); and to negotiate them with the management. As there already exists a GEP, the team wants to develop physics specific measures. No additional or physics specific GEP is intended.
