Equal Opportunities Committee

Equal Opportunities Committee

The Equal Opportunities Committee (EOC) is an advisory committee that aims to promote and monitor effective equality for all members of the University community. 

The responsibilities of the Committee are:

  • to formulate plans of positive actions in order to allow real equality for all members of the University community;
  • to detect all forms of discrimination, whether direct or indirect, that impede the full realization of equality or equal opportunities for all members of the University community;
  • to make sure that situations possibly leading to discrimination will not arise.

The Committee is a member of the Conferenza Nazionale degli organismi di parità delle Università italiane a network that promotes coordination and collaboration among university Committees on issues of equal opportunities and inclusion.

Gender Equality Plan

We are committed to a university culture based on openness, mutual respect, and integrity. Academic excellence arises from the exchange of diverse perspectives and can be fully achieved when all members of our academic community, regardless of gender, cultural background, religion, or age, are provided with equal opportunities for development and supported throughout their academic and professional journeys. The current Gender Equality Plan 2026–2028 serves as the University's binding framework for the systematic development of its equality strategy and the progressive removal of structural barriers.
