The Gender Equality Audit and Monitoring (GEAM) tool developed by the ACT project provides an integrated environment for carrying out survey-based gender equality audits in organizations (e.g. university or research performing organization) or organizational units (faculty, departments).
The GEAM tool aims to enable interested researchers as well as gender equality practitioners with little experience in the social sciences and survey methodology to construct high-quality questionnaires. Although the GEAM Core offers a set of standardized questions, it is the responsibility of the survey administrators to decide on the adequate questions, adapt it to both specific research interests and national/organizational contexts.

The GEAM Core questionnaire integrates a series of measurement scales from different sources. It draws in part on questions (and items) used by the ASSET survey in the UK, on questions from the European Working Conditions Survey, and other specific measurement scales used in the scientific literature.
The GEAM Core includes several measurement scales, only some of which have been evaluated in previous studies.
For an overview of the literature regarding the measurement scales used in the GEAM Core see:
