The European Commission is committed to promoting gender equality in research and innovation. Considering the existing inequalities, the European Commission has developed a Gender Equality Strategy. This strategy has resulted in:
• the introduction of a requirement for entities applying for Horizon 2020 funding to have a Gender Equality Plan;
• setting strict priorities in the composition of decision-making groups responsible for funding;
• honouring scientific projects that pay particular attention to enhancing the role of women.
The Gender Equality Plan for the Center for Theoretical Physics PAS (referred to as GEP) was prepared based on consultations and surveys conducted between 2015 and 2022. Statistical data was collected from the Integrated Information Network for Science and Higher Education system, reports sent to the President of the Polish Academy ofSciences and activity reports accepted annually by the Scientific Council of the Center for Theoretical Physics PAS. Many of the analyses were linked to the preparation of the institute to apply for the HR Excellence in Research award.
