Implementation and good practice

If you would like to suggest literature, resources or case studies for inclusion, please email the Equality & Diversity Unit.

Resources from Athena SWAN

Athena SWAN factsheets: three factsheets outlining good practice in the areas of organisational culture; work-life balance; and supporting researchers.

Going for Silver: presentations from the Going for Silver seminar held in December 2012, including advice on what the Athena panel is looking for at Silver level.

Organisational culture

6 Steps to Gender Equality: A short e-book by Norwegian academic Curt Rice based on his research on improving gender equality in European research universities. The booklet looks at the current situation of women academics in science, examines some of the reasons why progress isn’t being made more quickly, and offers some suggestions for moving forward. Highly recommended reading!

Mentoring

The Oxford Learning Institute: Information about the different mentoring initiatives available through the OLI and guidance for those wanting to set up a mentoring scheme.

Resources from the Equality Challenge Unit: If you already have, or are considering, a departmental scheme the Equality Challenge Unit has published some materials on women's mentoring schemes that you may find useful.
