Proposals
Generating knowledge related to gender equality and respect for diversity
In order for our institution to generate knowledge that contributes to solving society's global challenges, we must foster and disseminate our research in gender and feminist studies, as well as our studies focusing on sexual, bodily and gender diversity. Through research, we can not only dismantle the stereotypes that underpin inequality, but also generate new knowledge, the transfer of which will enable us to create more informed and equitable societies. In addition, women·s contributions as researchers and creators must be made visible, and their leadership in research groups, units of excellence, projects and research contracts should be promoted, particularly in STEM fields.
