Report on gender equality at INRA

In 2018 INRA published its first report on gender equality within the Institute. Factual data, backed up by the conclusions of discussions with numerous participants in human resources or other levels of the Institute and in collaboration with staff representatives, provide essential elements for identifying INRA’s priorities for action in favour of parity and diversity. Regularly updated, this report will constitute an important reference on the road towards obtaining the Equality/Diversity label.

INRA signs the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment

On 27 August 2018, Philippe Mauguin, President of INRA, signed the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment, which aims to improve how science research is evaluated. INRA’s commitment to this global initiative reflects the Institute’s consideration and methodical developments in this area, from how a journal’s reputation is determined in a particular field or broadening the scope of assessment to the diversity of activities and products of targeted research.
