Ten years ago the European Commission started its activities on “women in science”. This Report 
records this ten-year history, analyses the activities undertaken, provides an assessment of their ef-
fectiveness and appropriateness, and – whenever possible – includes a reflection on what did not 
work, what was not done, and how these omissions could be addressed. The authors believe that 
this report – a stocktaking of 10 years of activities on “women in science” – will help the European 
Commission to make decisions on future policy because of the perspective provided by the process 
of “taking stock”. And this report should also help future proposal presenters, providing them with the 
background to the topic, and the details of previously funded projects, thereby placing the Framework 
Programme calls into a policy development context.
