GENDERED INNOVATIONS

Gendered Innovations documents how gender analysis profoundly enhances human knowledge. Gender analysis - when turned to science, medicine, and engineering - can spark creativity by opening new perspectives, new questions, and new missions for future research. This is where the action is today.

This project seeks to train research scientists how to design gender analysis into basic and applied research. We provide case studies documenting specific gendered innovations and analyze how taking gender into account opens the door to innovation in science, medicine, and technology - and by doing so enhances the lives of both men and women.
