Zero-tolerance code of conduct. Counteracting gender-based violence, including sexual harassment, in the EU research and innovation system

This document was developed by the ERA Forum sub-group ‘Inclusive Gender Equality in the ERA’, in close cooperation with the European Commission. It aims to address incidents of gender-based violence in research and higher education environments by setting out a common approach, definitions, and a list of principles to guide Member States and other stakeholders and individuals, to create a European Research and Innovation environment free from all forms of gender-based violence, based on the values of gender equality and inclusiveness, respect, dignity and safety.
