A Sustainability Approach To Horizon Europe Cluster 3: Civil Security For Society

Abstract

This policy brief by GENDERACTION highlights the importance of integrating a gender dimension in the SDGs, the Sustainable Development Goals, as well as in Cluster 3. This is needed in order to achieve economic, social and ecological sustainability. The overall aim is to strengthen the capacity of Horizon Europe to contribute to gender equality and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda. Further, integrating a gender dimension in the SDGs will enhance ERA development as well as strengthen policy development in R&I within national contexts. The aim of integrating a gender dimension in SDGs is also highly relevant, both as a response to the current design of the Work Programme in Cluster 3 and for developing the Second Strategic Plan 2025-2027.
