संस्थानों का रूपांतरण करने के लिए लिंग प्रगति (GATI)

संस्थानों का रूपांतरण करने के लिए लिंग प्रगति (GATI) WISE-KIRAN प्रभाग के तत्वावधान में विज्ञान और प्रौद्योगिकी विभाग (डीएसटी) द्वारा शुरू किया गया एक अभिनव प्रयोग है। यह विज्ञान और प्रौद्योगिकी में लैंगिक समानता को बढ़ावा देने के लिए शुरु किया गया एक नया कार्यक्रम है। 28 फरवरी 2020 यानी राष्ट्रीय विज्ञान दिवस के अवसर पर विज्ञान भवन, नई दिल्ली में आयोजित विज्ञान में महिलाओं को समर्पित एक उत्सव कार्यक्रम में भारत के महामहिम राष्ट्रपति द्वारा घोषित डीएसटी की तीन पहलों में से एक पहल थी।

Objectives

GATI aspires to create an enabling environment for equal participation of women in Science, Technology, Engineering, Medicine, and Mathematics (STEMM) disciplines at all levels, addressing deep-rooted problems. An important feature of Project GATI is that it will not just assess, accredit and recognize institutions through Certification and Awards. It also engages, mentors, partners, and support institutions as they work towards reaching the global best practice of gender equality. GATI pilots a sustainable self-assessment and accreditation model. British Council will facilitate collaboration with Advance HE as well as the peer network of Athena SWAN accredited institutions in the UK. Our UK partner is Queen Mary University of London (QMUL)

Message from the President:

“JNCASR is a proud partner in the initiative of the Department of Science Technology, Govt. of India to bring gender equality in institutions in the form of project called “GATI – Gender Advancement through Transforming Institutions”. As per the given Charter of the Project, the Centre is committed to offer equal opportunities to all, particularly to women in STEMM areas. The several categories of researchers in the Centre reflect strong presence of women. Female faculty members are also inducted in key positions such as Deans, Chairs of the Units and Committees. Women scientists at JNCASR have also been supported by the Centre to set up laboratories and run independent projects being Principal Investigators of projects funded by various national and international funding agencies. In the appointment process as well, emphasis is given towards merit than gender. The Centre also has a well-framed system of redressal of complaints through committees on – internal grievance, students grievance, and sexual harassment of women in the workplace. Going forward, the Centre looks forward to the guidelines of this project to identify the gap areas and adopt appropriate transformative measures to establish equal opportunities across all sections of employees in STEMM areas.” - Prof. G.U.Kulkarni

GATI Nodal Officer’s Message:

“It is my sincere wish that the GATI initiative can transform the Science and Technology landscape in India by advancing gender equity, and enable the Indian scientific community to join global efforts for achieving gender equality. I am eager to contribute my bit towards this goal and looking forward to the progress that we will make by working together.”
