Gender Consulting is a consulting and service offered by the Office for Gender Equality and Family at OVGU and is aimed at faculties and scientists who need support in organizing equal opportunity measures. We help to develop equality measures for student and staff recruitment and the promotion of young talent. In addition, we advise faculties on the creation and implementation of equality concepts.

Gender and equality policy aspects are important for every major research proposal and play a significant role in the evaluation of proposals. In the area of gender consulting, the Office for Gender Equality and Family team offers information, advice, and support to applicants on integrating equality and gender aspects into research proposals and on implementing the respective measures for project managers. This includes:

on the inclusion of gender aspects in research

on the integration of gender and equality policy aspects in research proposals

on the DFG's research-oriented equality standards

on equality issues in the European Research Area and Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe

on the implementation of proposed equality measures

on the promotion of female scientists

The project position is assigned to the FEM POWER project and is financed by the European Social Fund.
