Parity Unit

Since its creation in 2019, the Parité unit has been organising actions to reduce the imbalance between men and women by following 3 steps: Measure, Understand, Act. In particular, it draws up a document comparing the situation of men and women in the laboratory, which highlights potential inequalities in the distribution of men and women, career progression, recruitment, representation on management bodies and project management. The unit also organises training courses to reduce these inequalities, for example on implicit gender bias or on the obstacles to women's careers.
