Methodological Framework to Assess Gender in International Cooperation in STI

Gender equality is one of the horizontal objectives of research and innovation policies. Yet, it is rarely addressed in EU and Member State (MS) policies and strategies for international cooperation in STI. The objective of this methodological framework is to provide guidelines on incorporating the gender perspective in international cooperation in STI. The methodological framework is divided into five sections:

• Preparation of International Agreements
• Preparation of Programmes and Calls
• Proposal Evaluation and Funding Decisions
• Financial Rules and Eligible Costs
• Programme Monitoring and Evaluation
