This handbook has been developed as part of the GEARING-Roles project (https://gearingroles.eu/), funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation program under Grant Agreement n° 824536. GEARING-Roles stands for Gender Equality Actions in Research Institutions to traNsform Gender Roles and consists of a multidisciplinary consortium of 10 European academic and non-academic partners that work together to design, implement, and evaluate six Gender Equality Plans (GEPs) following the steps described in the GEAR tool (define, plan, act and check). Overall, the GEARING-Roles project challenges and transforms gender roles and identities linked to professional careers and works towards real institutional change.
