On 8 March, International Women´s Day, IRB Barcelona joined the international campaign Each for Equal. The institute is committed to promoting a working environment that values and fosters diversity equality and inclusion. Along the same lines, we participate in awareness campaigns such as that carried out for the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
IRB Barcelona has an Equality and Diversity Committee, which is charged with developing and implementing strategies and measures in this field. The priority areas are: recruitment, leadership, professional development, work-life balance and communication.
