Dear All, ECU has just published a factsheet on Gender Equality Duty annual reports <http://www.ecu.ac.uk/publications/pubs_factsheets.htm#m200803GenderEqua litySchemes> which is designed to assist gender equality leads in HEIs in compiling their annual reports, due on 30th April 2008. We also hope to cover this topic to some extent in our upcoming Gender Duty events in London and Leeds, the full details of which will be disseminated soon when the programmes have been finalised.
