Women in Science: UK-Brazil Gender Equality Partnerships Call 2022

The Women in Science: Gender Equality Partnerships Call 2022 is an initiative of the British Council that seeks to follow up on the work started in the first call of the series, launched in 2021.

This call aims at facilitating partnerships between British higher education institutions certified by the Athena Swan Charter and Brazilian ones to develop projects based on the guidelines of the Brazil Gender Equality Framework for Higher Education Institutions, seeking the development of institutional policies and practices that promote gender equality in the areas of STEM.

The call will fund four British institutions to work together with at least two Brazilian institutions each. The latter will benefit from the British expertise in this matter. Supporting documents for this call, as well as application instructions, are available for download below.
