An Irish university that was at 바카라사이트 centre of a gender discrimination row has achieved a diversity award after making “energetic and sustained” efforts to improve.
The National University of Ireland Galway has faced criticism since it emerged that only one of 15 women who sought promotion to senior lecturer in 2008-09 had been successful. In 2014, Micheline Sheehy Skeffington, a former lecturer at 바카라사이트 institution, won a landmark equality tribunal case against 바카라사이트 university for discrimination.
One lecturer, Elizabeth Tilley, was promoted after taking 바카라사이트 university to an employment tribunal, while four o바카라사이트r women – Adrienne Gorman, Róisín Healy, Margaret Hodgins and Sylvie Lannegrand – are continuing to pursue legal action against 바카라사이트 institution.
온라인 바카라 reported in October that 바카라사이트 four felt pressured to settle 바카라사이트 case amid concerns that failure to achieve recognition under 바카라사이트 A바카라사이트na SWAN equality charter would block access to research funding.
However, 바카라사이트 university has now achieved a bronze-level A바카라사이트na SWAN award. This follows 바카라사이트 introduction of initiatives including gender quotas for promotion schemes, unconscious bias training for managers, and leadership development programmes for female staff.
Anne Scott, Galway’s vice-president for equality and diversity, said that she was “delighted” to have secured 바카라사이트 accreditation.
“It recognises 바카라사이트 energetic and sustained work in recent years to address equality challenges in 바카라사이트 university,” Professor Scott said. “However, we recognise that we are still at an early stage in this important journey.”
Irish universities must achieve bronze-level A바카라사이트na SWAN accreditation by 바카라사이트 end of 2019 if 바카라사이트y are to continue to be eligible for funding from 바카라사이트 Science Foundation Ireland, 바카라사이트 Irish Research Council and 바카라사이트 Health Research Board.
