This Programme aims to investigate tools and pathways to ensure that gender equality is a central pillar for project partner institutions as well as all UN Ocean Decade Initiatives. Research findings will identify key barriers and good practice contributing to a proposed Strategy and Action Plan to help deliver equal opportunities for full participation and leadership by women at all levels of ocean science under the UN Ocean Decade.
