Ready for Dialogue: Conference on the Gender Dimension in Science and Research

How can we target and eliminate existing blind spots concerning the importance of sex and gender in science and research? How can the contribution and potential of the gender dimension to scientific excellence and innovation more purposefully be taken into account for the benefit of science and research as well as research policy at national and European level?

The international conference “Ready for Dialogue” in Berlin will take these questions as starting point. The conference aims at initiating a strategic dialogue among relevant national and European key players, such as associations, (research) institutions and organizations that work within and outside the university context on the integration of the gender dimension in science and research. The aim is to foster the exchange between “knowledge” and “political action” and to strengthen and expand existing approaches in both areas and to develop a roadmap for the institutionalization of a regular dialogue.
