Gender information needs to be provided for each partner in the Project:

Gender of researchers and other workforce involved in the Project

• fill out the number of female and male researchers
• fill out the number of females and males in the workforce other than researchers
  • Workforce must always be counted using Head Count (HC) as unit and never Full Time Equivalent (FTE).

  • Workforce participating to the project must be counted, in HC, either when paid by EU funding or as in kind contribution from Affiliated Entities (Third Parties). 

• the total number of females and males in the workforce will then automatically be calculated. These two columns are non editable.
• click the Save button

 All editable fields need to contain a value; they cannot remain empty to avoid receiving a blocking error at the moment the report is submitted. In case there are no female/male researchers involved in the project, the value "0" (zero) should be inserted.

In case of  Partial takeover, the questionnaire is updated to transfer the data of the terminated beneficiary to the new beneficiary. The terminated beneficiary is removed from the 'Gender' table in the continuous report and in the impacted periodic report.
