Committee for Equal Rights, Diversity and Gender Equity
The IECS implements a gender and equity policy that promotes an inclusive work environment, free from violence, harassment and discrimination.
During 2019, a group of collaborators from the institution launched a proposal to develop a process to promote equal opportunities.
The IECS management team made a strong commitment to the issue, and the proposal moved forward guided by a specialized consulting firm, which conducted a situational analysis and developed an action plan. This included the creation of a Code of Conduct, a Guide to Best Practices, and a Reminder document outlining unacceptable practices. These instruments define the institution's position and the intervention strategies for addressing and resolving situations that produce inequalities and discrimination.
In 2020, a permanent working group was established: the Committee for Equal Rights, Diversity, and Gender Equity (CIDDEG), whose objectives are to monitor and evaluate the measures adopted and to create opportunities for reflection and training. This will allow IECS to achieve an organizational culture based on the principle of equity.
