Abstract
This volume describes Ca’ Foscari’s experience of twelve researchers who received grants awarded as part of the P.A.R.I. – Progetti e Azioni di Rete Innovativi per la parità e l’equilibrio di genere project, funded by the Veneto Region between 2023 and 2024. Thanks to the research conducted in these two years, factors contributing to the creation of gender stereotypes have been identified with a view to developing awareness-raising and countering strategies in different contexts and for different target groups. The impact of behavioral and leadership skills, which are essential for women to improve their self-awareness and enable them to adequately cover professional roles, as well as to hold top positions, has also been studied. The innovation of organizational and human resource management models to promote gender equality within organizations was also considered in the research. The book is relevant for the academia, students, but also for public and private entities working to promote gender equality in their environments. This work reflects part of the activities carried out and the commitment to continue along this path, in line with the objectives of the University’s Gender Equality Plan.
