The concept of gender equality translates into equal rights, freedom and opportunities for all genders, for the purpose of promoting assessment, recognition and participation on equal terms in the entire range of public and private life. In recent year, such concept has been in the center of attention and has become an important goal for companies and organisations at an international level.<\/p>\n GRNET S.A. – the National Infrastructures for Research and Technology, addresses this issue diligently, taking into account the importance of companies’ contribution towards a democratic and inclusive society, as well as the importance of diversity – especially in terms of gender – ensuring companies development in a balanced way with regards to addressing this very sensitive issue. GRNET’s Gender Equality Action Plan forms an integral part of the organisation’s operational goal. Its main purpose is to set guiding principles for the implementation of gender equality goals and set accountability measures for all corporate structures, operations and project outlines. GRNET will benefit from the adoption and implementation of the Gender Equality Action Plan as follows:![\"Image\"](\"https:\/\/grnet.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5_\u039fRGANIZATIONAL-CHART-1.jpg\")
