Integrating gender and diversity consistently into DFG proposals
Are you planning to submit a proposal to the DFG for a coordinated program, such as a Collaborative Research Centre, Priority Programme, Research Unit, Transregio or Research Training Group? If so, we can support you with your proposal and answer any questions you may have about gender equity and diversity in the proposal process.
Our consulting services are focused on proposal concepts that competently and consistently integrate gender equity and diversity. The aim is to support you in considering equal opportunities in a variety of dimensions from the first draft to continuation proposals. This is essential for the approval of research projects.
