International Gender Champions

IGC logo

CERN Director-General Fabiola Gianotti signed a pledge to be a Gender Champion, committing to promote gender equality.

This is a program to bring together leaders and alumni to break down Gender barriers.

Within the framework of this project, Fabiola has committed to:

  • Continue with the implementation of the “25 by ‘25” aspirational gender target strategy, ie. to increase the percentage of women employed by CERN to 25% by the end of 2025, with a particular focus on women in STEM.
  • Roll out a new learning for all Senior Leaders / Managers across CERN on how to recognise, prevent, and intervene in unacceptable behaviour, with a particular focus on gender-based harassment.
