UEMF partners with AUF for Gender Equality

Following the official launch of the international consortium of eleven Francophone institutions working towards achieving gender equality in June 2021, the Université Euromed de Fès participated in the experience-sharing workshop organized by the Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie.

The event, which took place on Friday, March 17, 2023, in Paris, was marked by the launch of the synthesis workshop for the work of the Francophone Consortium for Gender Equality on campuses. This meeting, aimed at developing an action plan for gender equality, provided an opportunity to present the Consortium's achievements after two years of activity, as well as its future prospects, under the banner of international cooperation.

Considering that gender equality is not only a fundamental human right but also a prerequisite for establishing a sustainable and socially responsible university, the AUF decided, with the support of UN Women, to launch a call for applications on March 8, 2021, for the creation of a consortium of institutions wishing to commit to an equality approach on their campuses.

Eleven institutions were selected to join this international collective. The ambition of this Consortium is to provide effective and operational support to institutions wishing to engage in this process in order to address persistent inequalities that also affect our universities.
