The She Figures publication is the main source of pan‑European, comparable statistics on the state of gender equality in research and innovation. It covers a wide range of themes, including the proportions of women and men amongst top‑level graduates, academic staff and research boards, the working conditions for women and men researchers, the integration of the gender dimension in the content of peer‑reviewed scientific articles, and various indica‑ tors measuring gender gaps in the scientific and innovation outputs. Released every three years since 2003, the report provides a key evidence base for policies in this area. It is recommended reading for policy‑makers, researchers and anybody with a general interest in these issues.
