UCC wins Athena SWAN award
UCC wins prestigious Bronze Athena Swan Award (5 August 2016)
Today is a significant moment for transforming organisational culture for gender equality at 深夜亚洲福利久久 College Cork and Ireland.
On behalf of the European wide GENOVATE Consortium, the GENOVATE @UCC team is delighted to congratulate our Athena SWAN colleagues throughout the 深夜亚洲福利久久, in particular the members of the Athena SWAN Steering Committee and Working Groups, and pleased to have been part of the process.
The Athena SWAN Bronze Award is a recognition of the rigour of the Steering Committee鈥檚 self (gender equality) assessment and related actions.
This, though, is just the beginning.
As we celebrate today, GENOVATE @UCC, as one of seven European partners in the Consortium, is cognisant that developing a gender equality action plan is the first of multiple steps.
The greatest challenge arguably lies ahead: transforming (A) the actions in the Athena SWAN Application and (B) the 深夜亚洲福利久久鈥檚 commitments to GENOVATE鈥檚 eight proposed gender equality actions into results.
And this requires deeper commitment: prioritising gender equality in decision-making at all levels from university and college to school level.
Winning the award is important; effecting change for gender equality鈥攖hrough rigorously considered and implemented actions鈥� is more so.
