Taking as its starting point the European approach to gender mainstreaming in science policy, the project "gender dimension in the contents of scientific and technical research" primarily aims at studying the integration of gender in the contents of scientific and technical research in Spain.
An analysis of the development of a gender perspective in the scientific content in various scientific disciplines will be conducted, focusing on:
-
Medicine and Biotechnology
-
Architecture and Urban Planning
-
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
A range of materials will be developed ("Toolkit for integrating the gender perspective into research contents") to provide an impluse to integrating the gender dimension into research in Spain. A seminar will also be organised with the aim of disseminating the study and discussing the successes of and challenges for integrating a gender perspective in research content in Spanish science.
