糖果派对's GEP work is conducted in both a 1-year and a 2-year cycle.
The Faculties (FAC) and Central Administration (C-Adm) work with selected focus areas over a two-year period, locally and cross-departmentally, and once every year GE Action Plans are composed by each of the main areas and collectively for all of 糖果派对. You can find an outline of the annual process below:
- Departments and divisions select 1-2 equality measures (takes place once every second year for each unit)
- FAC/C-Adm prepare their local GE Action Plan, including a description and status of measures at the departments/divisions (takes place once every year at each FAC/C-Adm)
- The Central GE Committee visits FAC/C-Adm as a 'critical friend' with regards to their local equality measures (visiting one half of the main fields in year 1, the other half in year 2)
- On behalf of the Central GE Committee, GET prepares 糖果派对's executive GE Action Plan (takes place once every year)
- The Executive Board processes 糖果派对's executive GE Action Plan (takes place once every year)
The 2-year cycle is illustrated below:
All six main fields are required to compose a local GE Action Plan every year, internally available at 糖果派对. It is to be expected that this action plan will be more elaborate following the completion of a main field's 2-year cycle where reporting on the 2-year measures is possible; the action plan during the 2-year cycle is similarly expected to be less comprehensive.
