Recover Together Recover Strong

July 19 – 21, 2022

Sumatra

From July 19 to 21, the Women 20 summit will meet in Sumatra, Indonesia. This is an Engagement Group of the G20, representing the world’s 20 most industrialized countries, organized around the slogan used by Indonesia for the G20: Recover Together, Recover Stronger.

Dr. Sveva Avveduto from the CNR will lead the Italian delegation. The W20 group, which addresses all G20 themes from a female perspective, will present the results of a year’s work in the form of a Communiqué. This will be delivered to the G20 at the end of the Summit so that world leaders can incorporate gender equality and female empowerment into the conclusions of the G20 to be held in November.

The W20 has identified five priority areas, the first concerning non-discrimination and equality in every sector—from education to work, entrepreneurship, health, technology, and energy—as well as in public and private life.

In particular, world leaders are asked to take concrete measures to close the gender pay gap. An important area is education for boys and girls, aimed at eliminating gender stereotypes and the difficulties girls face in pursuing scientific studies and careers.

In Vigo, Spain, from June 6 to 8, several colleagues will begin the training through which they, in turn, will become trainers for the staff of the National Research Council. Two days of training for various professional profiles and levels who, having responded to an expression of interest, have chosen to become trainers to facilitate cultural change towards greater gender equality in our research institution. Specifically, the training objectives will include promoting equality in scientific careers, monitoring gender balance in decision-making processes and governing bodies, integrating the gender dimension into research and innovation content, as well as implementing the Gender Equality Plan (GEP). The team is composed as follows:

Natalia Brubo (Cnr-Ino, Florence) Claudia Caddeo (Cnr-Iom, Cagliari) Annalisa Delre (Cnr-Ipcf, Bari)

Monica Favaro (Cnr-Icmate, Padua) Martina Mattiazzi (Cnr-Isem, Milan)

Luisa Neri (Cnr-Nano, Modena) Rosaria Puglisi (Cnr-Imm, Catania) Melanie Timpel (Cnr-Imem, Trento)

In Vigo, they will participate in active and participatory workshops where they will compare best practices and experiences in a heterogeneous context with the other 9 European partners of “MINDtheGEPs – Modifying Institutions by Developing Gender Equality Plans“, the European research project aimed at raising awareness of gender inequalities in the world of scientific research and implementing the Gender Equality Plan, which involves the participation of the CNR with a group of researchers from the Institute for Research on Population and Social Policies (CNR-IRPPS). This will be the first training appointment, and next summer there will be a second one in Belgrade (Serbia). We wish our colleagues the best of luck and thank them for choosing to get involved for everyone!
