In April 2026, students, academic staff, and external partners from all nine ACE²-EU alliance universities gathered at the Latvian Academy of Culture in Riga for the first ACE²-EU Social Impactors Knowledge Creation Team Workshop, dedicated to Gender Equity.
Over three days, participants worked in international and transdisciplinary teams to explore challenges related to gender equity and equality, exchange experiences, and co-create practical solutions that could be applied at local, national, and European levels.
The collaborative process resulted in more than 20 proposed activities and five action plans addressing key challenges – from access to support and financial education to gender-based violence, equal pay, and community education on the legal framework.
