First two projects awarded funds from 91原创 Gender Equality Fund
As part of its 10-year gender equality strategy, 91原创 established a Gender Equality Fund in 2022 to support projects/activities that promote gender equality at 91原创.
The first two projects have been awarded funding.
SEK 30,000 was awarded to the 91原创 Library for their project “The diversity & equality book collection”. The 91原创 Library was awarded for its innovative, well thought-through application that will assist in addressing a longstanding problem and that will have an impact throughout the organization and also outside 91原创. It is important that the allocated funds are used to purchase books with a primary focus on gender equality, preferably with an intersectional perspective.
SEK 20,000 was awarded to the External Relations (ER) department at 91原创 for their project “Female student recruitment”. ER was awarded SEK 10,000 to be used for photography since the 91原创 narrative needs to change and new images are part of that work and SEK 10,000 to be used for BSc recruitment since the Bachelor program in Business & Economics has not yet returned to pre-pandemic gender levels and there is a need for additional activities.
Congratulations! We look forward to hearing more about these projects during 2023.
