Article 16 Gender equality
Horizon 2020 shall ensure the effective promotion of
gender equality and the gender dimension in research
and innovation content. Particular attention shall be paid
to ensuring gender balance, subject to the situation in
the field of research and innovation concerned, in
evaluation panels and in bodies such as advisory
groups and expert groups.
The gender dimension shall be adequately integrated
in research and innovation content in strategies,
programmes and projects and followed through at all
stages of the research cycle.

Gender Balance: advisory groups, expert groups, evaluators,….
Gender Dimension: Identify gaps and
opportunities regarding the gender dimension in Open
Science and Open Innovation (OSI).
Needs of society, involvement of people in
innovation process,….., Open access publications, ……… (She

Gender Balance and Gender Dimension
Excellence of R&I and Efficiency of R&I Systems
Excellence of R&I: Without considering gender analysis in
research and innovation (GRI), the scope, impact and utility of
research results may not be equally valid for both men and
women. (different heart attack symptoms,……)
EC designated over 130 subfields where data show that gender
analysis can benefit research: computer hardware and
architecture to nanotechnology, oceanography, geosciences,
organic chemistry, aeronautics, space medicine, biodiversity,
ecology, biophysics, ………

research” (Colab. Stanford Univ.)

Efficiency of R&I systems:
A knowledge-based economy with so many challenges to
approach requires the best intelligences, (equally
distributed among men and women). Only use half of the
resources are neither intelligent, nor efficient, nor
competitive, and clearly insufficient. Therefore, it must be
the governments themselves, thinking in the general
interest, the first interested parties, in women assume in
the scientific and technological fields a much more active
role than they currently have.

Barriers
Why are there fewer women in the
history of science than in other fields?
What are the obstacles?
Obstacles:
Dedication (Conciliation)
Prejudices (Google)
Recognition (Novel Prices)

Rosalyn Yalow, Premio Nobel de Fisiologia y
Medicina 1977(Fragmento discurso en la ONU, 1978)
“El esfuerzo más grande hay que ponerlo en el problema
fundamental; en como las mujeres se ven a si mismas y como
los grupos sociales las ven en relación a sus aspiraciones y
capacidades... Tenemos que creer en nosotras mismas o nadie
más creerá en nosotras, tenemos que hacer compatibles
nuestras aspiraciones como la competencia, el coraje y la
determinación por el éxito, y aquellas de nosotras que hemos
tenido la suerte de salir adelante tenemos que asumir la
responsabilidad personal de servir de modelo y de tutoras para
hacer más fácil el camino a las que vienen detrás. No
lucharemos para cambiar de sentido la discriminación sino
simplemente por la igualdad de oportunidades, y si lo
deseamos, lo podremos conseguir”
