Our commitment to equality
CEREGE implements an active policy in favour of equality and the prevention of discrimination.
The Equality Unit
Created in 2019, the equality unit acts at the level of CEREGE and the’OSU Pytheas to promote gender equality.
Depuis 2024, son périmètre s’étend à la lutte contre toutes les formes de discriminations : orientation sexuelle et identité de genre (LGBTQIA+), handicap, religion, et toute autre situation d’inégalité.
La cellule joue un rôle moteur en développant et en structurant différentes initiatives (programmes de formation et de mentorat, cafés-égalités), en coordination avec les établissements de tutelle et selon ces trois axes stratégiques : mesurer, comprendre, agir.
Since 2019, the CEREGE publishes an annual gender report (see below).
The indicators are analysed by gender and by body:
Workforce
Age pyramid
Recruitment
Career development
Responsibilities
Supporting projects
PhDs
The representation of women is also monitored in :
Guest seminars
Submissions
Juries
Recruitment (theses, post-doctorates, ATER)
These data are put into perspective with those of the CNRS and’Aix-Marseille University.
When inequality is systemic (rather than cyclical), it cannot be explained by individual factors alone.
The differences are the result of a number of interlocking factors:
private sphere
educational tour
working environment
institutional organisation
social systems
collective representations and stereotypes
The unit has a number of key initiatives:
Training in implicit gender bias
Designed primarily for people in positions of responsibility (teams, platforms, committees).
Based on research results
Hosted by Isabelle Régner and Magali Putero
Format: 3 x 2-hour workshops, groups of around 15 people
Programme « Dare! Women in Higher Education® (ESR) "
Objective: to remove the obstacles to women's careers in higher education and research.
French adaptation of the Springboard Tremplin programme
12 participants per year

Organised with the association Women & Science
Supported by the’OSU Pytheas and Aix-Marseille University
Around 20 mentees in 2024

The unit recommends that continuous vigilance be maintained to ensure that the representation of women reaches at least their proportion in the workforce. It is available to support all members of the laboratory and can be contacted for :
report a problem
ask a question
exchange ideas in complete confidentiality
In particular, it works to prevent and deal with discrimination and sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV).
