GENDER EQUALITY PLAN INDEX INTRODUCTION Context analysis and gender situation GEP Elaboration Thematic areas and their development Plan for the gender quality Legend INTRODUCTION In the Community legislation the basic principle of gender equality is established as one of the cornerstones on the basis of which the whole project of European Union is founded.
Although the Treaty establishing the European Community (EEC), signed in Rome on 25th March of 1957, acknowledged an embryo form of equality, it is only when the Lisbon Treaty came to force, in 1st December 2009, that equality between women and men was strongly recognised as one of the core values of the European Union (art.

2 of the European Union Treaty).


On the other hand, among the goals for work fixed by the European Union in the framework of the Strategy for the growth Europe 2020, three growth drivers are set (smart, sustainable, inclusive growth), in whose context the chance of implementing positive actions to reach an overall employment rate of 75% for women and men between 20 and 64 years are expressly foreseen.
In fact, the increase of the women’s employment level represents one of the most relevant indicators of the socio-economic development of a Country.

A concrete application of this principle to planning and implementing Structural and Investments Funds, is represented by the requirement of art.

7 of the EU regulation 1303/2013, which concerns the respect of the horizontal principle for “Promotion of equality between men and women and non-discrimination”.
At a national level On March 26, 2010, the Parliament of Georgia adopted the Law on Gender Equality, the purpose of which is to prevent discrimination based on gender in all spheres of public life.

DETERMINATION PHASES OF GEP 1) Context analysis and determination of GEP The Context analysis outlined that on the total number of employees of the State Silk Museum of Tbilisi out of 17 persons there 14 women and 3 men.
The male presence is not predominant; The female profile is predominant in all the main following profiles: management, curatorial profiles, administration, educational department.

The administration of museum is respecting and following all the national and international rules of gender equality but since in general in the country of Georgia it’s a very minimal salary at the museums’ and in the cultural field, there are lack of number of male co-workers.
At the managerial level there is a prevalence of the female gender.

2) GEP Elaboration The current Plan, issued consistently with the other policy papers, provides tools apt to positively influence the working environment favouring shared values of equality and personal respect, and the organization of the work, rethought in a social and gender dimension.
Thus, starting from the five thematic areas recommended by the European Commission and called as indicated by the same Commission, we prepared a document useful in the phase of proposal of projects for the next program Horizon Europe.
We followed a logic scheme, which begins with managerial activities and focuses on the research sector, as the privileged recipient of the attentions to Gender Equality; then, it accompanies the growth of awareness during the working path of the employees, from recruitment, then, during the career progressions, by sustaining at the same time the balance between work and private life, and finally facing the possible onset of behavioural pathologies in the workplace, leading to the gender violence.
