"Break Even - Promoting Gender Equality in Business" was a project promoted by ISEG-ULisboa, Coordinated by Sara Falcão Casaca, in partnership with CESIS (Centro de Estudos para a Intervenção Social, Coordinated by Heloísa Perista), CIEG (Centro Interdisciplinar de Estudos de Género, ISCSP, ULisboa, Coordinated by Anália Torres) and the Centre for Gender Research, Oslo University.

The team aimed to provide companies with a highly qualified and innovative intervention approach in order to promote equality between women and men, allowing the optimization of management systems, work organization models and decision making processes as well as improving morale and organizational performance. 

It was considered that the good practices generated would eventually "contaminate" other organizations, encouraging their determination to adopt a similar intervention methodology.

The project "Sexual Harassment and Bullying in the Workplace" was promoted by Commission for Equality in Labour and Employment and developed by a research team from CIEG-ISCSP/ULisboa. The team was coordinated by Anália Torres and had Dália Costa, Bernardo Coelho, Helena Sant´Ana and Isabel Sousa as its members. This project originated a book, a training manual in portuguese, an ebook in english and a policy brief in both portuguese and english. After the publication of the study, Anália Torres and Bernardo Coelho were one of the entities heard by the Task Force of the 10th Parliamentary Comission - Harassment and Bullying in the Workplace, at the National Assembly, on the 27th of April 2017. The results of this study were an important contribution to the knowledge of the situations of harrassment and bullying in the workplace and to the adjustment of the Law.

Project financed by EEA Grants and promoted by CIG/CITE (Comissão para a Cidadania e Igualdade de Género e Comissão para a Igualdade no Trabalho e no Emprego).

The Master's programme in Family and Gender at ISCSP offers interdisciplinary training in the topics of family and gender by a set of doctorates and experts from various scientific areas who work on these thematics.

Goals: 

1. Offer in-depth training in the topics of gender and family so that students can oppose rigorous information to ideological speeches and misinformation.
2. Create a unique graduate programme in Portugal, assembling in the same programme researchers and experts from different areas of study and work.
3. Contribute to the analysis of the family dynamics and gender relations through a link with the research centres (specially the ones at ISCSP).
