360° Gender in Research(GinF)

Taking gender aspects into account is essential for excellence in research. GinF is comitted to systematically reviewing research projects to identify where gender dimensions are relevant, and integrating them where approriate. Thereby, gender becomes a natural and integral part of scientific practice. Gender is seen intersectionally, in order to include all its complex interactions with other dimensions of diversity. 

GinF aims to establish gender dimensions as an integral part of good scientific practice and to anchor them into research structures. In order to develop together viable approaches across disciplines and throughout all qualification phases, GinF seeks continuous exchange with university decision-makers, scientists and science management staff. GinF supports larger research groups as well as individual scientists through tailor-made events and individual consulting services that take into account subject-specific cultural characteristics and the requirements of individual career phases.

GinF stands for the active integration of gender aspects into science and technology transfer. The project aims to ensure that innovations and research results benefit everyone—regardless of gender and other dimensions of diversity. Targeted consulting and awareness-raising promote inclusive innovations and diversity-oriented perspectives on transfer processes.
