Gender Advisory Committee

The Gender Advisory Committee (GAC) is an advisory body to the Project Coordination Office (PCO) and Directorate (DIR) of the Human Brain Project (HBP).  The Gender Advisory Committee is composed of HBP board members, leaders, scientist, technologists or managers engaged in the work for HBP from different domains. Each board and subproject appoint at least one, preferable two members (a man and a woman) for the GAC, who are chosen for their unique engagement and willingness to contribute. Currently the GAC consists of 24 members. The Gender Advisory Committee is providing advice and feedback on the Gender Action Plan (GAP) of HBP on activities planned to improve equality in their respective areas of responsibility.
