On March 16th 2021, CIDOB formed its Equality Commission, with the aim of drawing up an Equality Plan for CIDOB for effective equality between women and men.

This document aims to analyse the achievement of equal treatment and opportunities for all staff and to identify specific improvement measures in accordance with Royal Decree Law 6/2019, of March 1, on urgent measures to guarantee equal treatment and opportunities between women and men in occupation and employment.

The law establishes the obligation for all companies with 50 or more employees to produce a gender equality plan. Although the number of CIDOB employees remains below 50 at the time of the Equality Plan’s approval, the institution has decided to endow itself with this tool in order to reaffirm its institutional commitment to gender equality and align itself with the most recent advances on the issue at state and European level.

Valid for 4 years, this Plan aims to be a dynamic tool whose data will be updated annually.
