Накратко на български
Равенството между половете в научните дисциплини и технологичните компании се анализира чрез правилата и нормите в Ирландия и Италия. Разбирането на тези механизми помага за създаване на по-подкрепяща среда за развитие на кариерата в STEM областите.

Feminist Institutionalist Approach to Gender Equality in STEMM
“Feminist Institutionalist Approach to Gender Equality in STEMM” (FIAGES) applied FI in an innovative way to public and private institutions, academic departments and high tech companies, seen as a continuum from training, to employment, and building a career, but also, potentially, sources of a variety of discriminating situations. Adding the lens of feminist institutionalism to the theories available allows a richer understanding of the culture of GE policy transformations in public and private sectors, as different narratives of policy transformation counteract the potential shortcomings of analysis based on a single lens. Progress in GE depends on strong congruent narratives supporting GE in academic and workplace organisations, particularly STEM disciplines and high tech companies. Studying and working in organisations with a satisfactory level of gender equality can foster gender-sensitive innovation in STEM fields in academia and high tech companies, creating a virtuous circle that reinforces GE’s culture. FIAGES hypothesised that when narratives are non-congruent, non-supportive or congruent and non-supportive, GE does not progress, while congruent and supportive narratives will favour progress in GE. The research focused on Ireland and Italy, and its specific objectives were to: 1) Gain a greater understanding of the co-constitutive nature of promotion of GE in two sectors interconnected: academy (STEM disciplines) and high tech companies. 2) Explore the various roles that individuals play within the selected institutions to promote GE and bring about or resist gender-sensitive change; 3) Understand how these institutions/organisations shape individual behaviours through the construction of rules, norms, and policies.

Цел на проекта
“Feminist Institutionalist Approach to Gender Equality in STEMM” (FIAGES) addresses the research question: “is narrative congruence essential for progressing Gender Equality (GE)?” using the qualitative hypothesis that progress in GE is dependent on strong congruent narratives supporting of GE in academic and workplace organisations, in particular STEMM disciplines and high tech companies.Studying and working in organisations having a satisfactory level of gender equality can foster gender-sensitive innovation in STEMM fields in academia and in high tech companies, creating a virtuous circle that reinforces a culture of GE. It is hypothesised that when narratives are a) non-congruent; b) non-supportive; or c) congruent and non supportive, GE does not progress, while d) congruent and supportive narratives will favour progress in GE.Trinity College Dublin is well placed to support the planned research since it promotes an integrated approach to equality, mainstreams all gender-related policies and activities across the University; deepens partnerships to promote GE with key professional, service and business organisations in the wider community. The ER, with a strong competence in non-academic sectors, wishes to apply for tenured academic position in Gender Studies: the Trinity Centre for Gender Leadership, the Centre hosting the ER, provides excellent training opportunities and specific skills needed in gender studies, and the supervisor has an established international research profile strongly aligned to this application.Research outputs include two journal articles, a book, presenting the research at international conferences, and international seminars and webinars. A bilingual dissemination and communication plan will increase awareness of the research aims and results. Numerous outreach activities, including the use of social media, will allow the transfer of knowledge in academy and companies, and also to the general public.
