The  Gender Summit’s next edition will be held in Brussels on the 8-9 November 2016. 70 speakers will contribute to sparking dialogue about Gender-based research, innovation and development for sustainable economies and social wellbeing. Professor Tullia Gallina Toschi, as the Plotina Scientific Coordinator, will be one of them.

The PLOTINA project is a partnership between six Research Performing Organisations across Europe and it brings together different actors and countries that aim to build and promote excellence in sciences throughout Europe. Their commitment to excellence is also an unconditional commitment to Gender Equality. Together with other gender expert organisations, they will first identify good actions already implemented with the six RPOs. This will be a participatory process of mutual learning that will lead to design and implement self-tailored Gender Equality Plans (GEPs). PLOTINA will contribute to spreading modular and adaptable resources on Gender Balance for other RPOs across Europe.
