As part of the EU-funded Gender-SMART project (H2020) this capacity building session will be organised, to learn how to best integrate the gender dimension into project management and research contents. 

Combining short presentations with hands-on sessions in sub-groups, this activity will briefly introduce the state of the play with regard to gender imbalances in research and academic organizations, discuss the notions of gender blindness and gender bias in knowledge production, and provide practical guidance to enhance participants’ ability to mainstream a gender perspective.
