Submission Opens for 2022 Minerva Informatics Equality Award
The 2022 Minerva Award, sponsored by Google, is devoted to gender equality initiatives and policies to develop the careers of female faculty, including retention and promotion.
This is the seventh edition of the Minerva Informatics Equality Award. The Award seeks to celebrate successful initiatives that have had a measurable impact on the careers of women within the institution. Such initiatives can serve as exemplars of best practices within the community, with the potential to be widely adopted by other institutions. Submissions will need to demonstrate the impact that has been achieved.
For 2022, examples of impact could include an improved success rate in recruiting, retaining and promoting female staff, increased satisfaction scores from objective surveys of staff experience, achievement of 'beacon' status (i.e. being used as an exemplar within national or regional initiatives). The Award carries a prize of EUR 5,000.

The Award will be presented during the 18th European Computer Science Summit (ECSS), which will be held in Hamburg, Germany, October 24-26, 2022, where a representative of the winning institution(s) will be invited to give a talk on their achievements.
