Catherine Gater (European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI)) will present the newly created Equal Opportunities Policy for ELIXIR.

The Policy is designed to form part of the Handbook of Operations. It covers recommendations on equal opportunities for the ELIXIR Hub and Nodes, and also ELIXIR’s advisory and governance committees, trainers, events, tools and services and Communities of Practice. The Equal Opportunity Policy for ELIXIR outlines the data and metrics that the Hub and Nodes are recommended to collect relating to equality and diversity. The Policy covers the cycle for data collection, monitoring and feeding this back into practice. Finally, the Equal Opportunities Policy describes strategies for establishing an ELIXIR Equal Opportunities Toolkit and collaborations with other networks and projects.

ELIXIR Webinars usually take place every third Wednesday of the month 15.00 CET and are open for anyone to join. Upcoming webinars.
