Project Partners

TRIGGER is coordinated and co-funded by the Italian Government (Dipartimento per i Diritti e le Pari Opportunità), is assisted by an institute specialised in gender and science (ASDO), and involves five universities from different EU countries (Czech Republic, France, Italy, UK, Spain). The project aims at promoting systemic interventions designed to have deep, long lasting and widespread impacts in all the universities involved.

• Università di Pisa, Italy
• Vysoka Skola Chemiko-Technologicka v Praze (VSCHT), Czech Republic
• Institute of Sociology of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (ISAS CR)
• Birkbeck, University of London, UK
• Université Paris Diderot – Paris 7, France
• Universidad Politecnica de Madrid, Spain

Each university leads a different set of activities, tailored to local needs and expertise, to make progress in gender equality more effective. Some activities build on previous activities conducted by one or more partners, to maximize the possibility of creating synergies. The partners meet twice per year to share experience and discuss the advancement of the project.
