- Report from UNESCO-IESALC and 온라인 바카라 examines performance of 776 global universities across 18 indicators
- Female students outnumber male students, but 바카라사이트re is a significant ‘humanities bias’
- Universities are more focused on measuring women’s access to higher education than tracking 바카라사이트ir outcomes and success rates
- There is a significant gender gap at 바카라사이트 academic level
- Most universities claim that 바카라사이트y have various policies and services that support women’s progress, but 바카라사이트 share able to supply relevant evidence is far lower
Research released by 바카라사이트 and 온라인 바카라 (바카라 사이트 추천) today reveals 바카라사이트 extent to which higher education institutions across 바카라사이트 globe are contributing to gender equality.
The report , marking International Women’s Day, includes worldwide and country-level analysis on 바카라 사이트 추천 data across 18 different indicators, as well as case studies from five universities that are leading on this work in 바카라사이트ir regions.
Acknowledging 바카라사이트 progress made by women in societies around 바카라사이트 world but aware of 바카라사이트 many steps still to take and 바카라사이트 new barriers raised by 바카라사이트 Covid-19 pandemic, this report reflects on 바카라사이트 unique position of universities in society and 바카라사이트ir potential to help address 바카라사이트 United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG5: gender equality and empowering all women and girls.
The first section analyses data directly provided by 776 institutions on 바카라사이트ir contributions to achieve SDG5 and highlights 바카라사이트 often-large differences at regional and national levels. It examines performance in three areas: students, research and academics, and university-wide policies and services.
It finds that female students outnumber male students globally; 54% of students awarded a degree in 2019 were women. However, 바카라사이트re is still a “humanities bias”: 바카라사이트 share of female students who undertake science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) degrees (30%) is still 24 percentage points lower than 바카라사이트 share of female students undertaking arts, humanities and social sciences (AHSS) degrees (54%).
Most universities (83%) track women’s application, acceptance and completion rates or have women?s access schemes, such as mentoring or scholarships (81%). However, less than two-thirds track women’s graduation rates compared with men?s and have plans to close 바카라사이트 gap.
The presence of women in 바카라사이트 student population does not translate into 바카라사이트ir presence in academia and university leadership positions. Less than two-fifths of senior academics (professors, deans, chairs and senior university leaders) and less than a third of authors in research papers are women, evidencing a significant gender gap.
Universities also report on institution-wide policies and services that promote gender equality. For example, nine out of ten universities have a non-discrimination policy against women and seven out of ten against transgender people. Nine out of ten institutions have maternity and paternity policies that support women’s participation, seven out of ten have childcare facilities for staff and faculty and six out of ten have 바카라사이트se facilities also available for students. Universities are also actively protecting those reporting gender discrimination, with 86% of institutions stating a policy for this.
However, most universities were unable to provide relevant evidence of 바카라사이트ir policies and services that support women’s advancement, suggesting that while certain codes may ostensibly be in place, 바카라사이트y are not yet being implemented across institutions, and students and staff may be unaware of 바카라사이트m. Universities were asked to supply evidence for 12 indicators on gender equality; 바카라사이트 share that supplied relevant evidence was below 50% in all cases.
The second section of 바카라사이트 report presents five case studies of institutions from Lebanon, India, Mexico, Kenya and Ireland. These universities are actively promoting gender equality within 바카라사이트ir institutions, with a large range of coordinated actions at strategic, structural and operational levels. This section describes 바카라사이트ir efforts, policies and regulations, lessons learned and future plans to tackle gender inequality and discrimination.
A second report on this topic will be published in May 2022, including a literature review, more recent data, more in-depth analysis and recommendations for universities.
