Step 2: Understanding Challenges and Solutions (2018)
To prioritize goals within the GenEQ initiative, the University will research its own challenges, such as :
- distribution of women and other under-represented gender groups in academic and professional areas and in leadership positions
- gender patterns in grant submissions, funding and nominations for research awards
- policies and practices for hiring, professional development, performance review and wage setting
- balance of scholarships across genders, particularly in areas with gender imbalances
The research will also:
- assess the culture of inclusion on our campuses
- explore international best practices for achieving gender equity
- review leadership programs at U of G and beyond
