Description
This talk describes the background and motivation for operative efforts in promoting change on all levels at Lund University, Sweden. I will start with a general discussion on different nature of work for change at a university – from policies and plans, to active and operative projects to promote change that can be measured, reported and evaluated. Examples from Lund will give a picture of what is needed to make people actively work on gender perspective and awareness, and point out that what could be interpreted as resistance might be a lack of information and knowledge. I will describe in some detail the gender certification project, from the pilot project initiated by our chancellor, the first years of activities at the Physics Department and finally describe some “spontaneous” changes that can be observed and is related to the gender certification project.| Period | 2013 Nov 21 |
