European Gender Summit 2011

Máire Geoghegan-Quinn, Since February 2010: Commissioner for Research, Innovation & Science, DG Research, Innovation & Science

"It is clear that time alone will not redress the under-representation of women in research or scientific leadership. Specific measures are needed to support women's scientific careers, and to address gender factors in the research process, with a view to improving quality. This will also help enhance scientific excellence in Europe. The European Gender Summit will show how these issues can be tackled more effectively through collaboration between scientists, gender research scholars and policy makers. The programme sessions will draw on solid research evidence to demonstrate that improved action on gender equality can yield improved creativity, better scientific results and more successful organisations."
