European Strategy Baltic Sea Forum for Gender Equality and Growth 3.0

Winnet Sweden has started a project to establish a European Baltic Sea Forum Strategy for Gender Equality and Growth 3.0. In short: EUSBSR Forum GE & Growth 3.0.

The goal of the EUSBSR Forum GE & Growth 3.0 will be to ensure gender mainstreaming, that gender equality between women and men will be mainstreamed, in economic models and methods that are used for Innovation in entrepreneurship for growth. The project will look at implementing gender equality to be mainstreamed on a macro regional level and from a multi governance perspective.

The project is a cooperation between multiple actors; NGO ETNA; Winnet Center of Excellence ®; The municipality of Umeå, Sweden; Norden International; SKEN; Women’s Baltic Peacebuilding Initiative; Winnet Armenia; Women Resource Centre Network, NGO, Armenia; The Municipality of Goris, Armenia; and Baltic Institute of Finland, NGO.

The project will started off with several meetings and seminars where we analyzed what is needed to ensure gender equality between women and men in models and methods used for innovation and growth in entrepreneurship. Throughout the project we have educated, trained, shared knowledge, experiences, research, and good examples and reevaluated each other to identify best practices and build the EUSBSR Forum GE & Growth 3.0.

The project will finish off with a Forum for Gender Equality and Growth 3.0 conference. At the conference we will be presenting a EUSBSR forum platform for cross border co-operation within EUSBSR and EAP and new project in Central Baltic, Interreg BSR, EU EAP projects and others that have been developed within the project.
