GUIDE

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

GUIDE focuses on the issue of gender and career development and the continuing barriers to achieving equality of opportunity in this area. For this purpose, Career Guidance Professionals (CGP) must adopt a gender-sensitive approach and avoid using stereotypes when supporting individuals in their career decisions.

Our aim is to help career counsellors move away from traditional role-based biases that can limit their choices, with the aim of ensuring gender equality in the opportunities that are offered to all genders, not to mention the perspective of talent, ability, and resources. We will ensure that all genders are able to choose opportunities on the basis of interest and ability rather than gender.

GUIDE will develop a set of learning resources and methods and make it available to CGPs, universities, and other training providers to support all genders in making career decisions without using gender stereotypes.
