Moverim is looking for motivated, dynamic interns to assist our team in its communication and dissemination activities.
For twenty years Moverim has been working to spread European values and culture by simplifying participation in EU-funded projects and to involve a greater share of young researchers and innovative start-ups in European funding programmes. This internship thus offers a unique hands-on experience in several fields: for students with a passion for content and graphic design in social media platforms and websites as well as for students interested in entering in touch with EU policies and funding programmes.

Gender Equality Plan

The European Commission is committed to promoting gender equality in research and innovation as part of its Gender Equality Strategy for 2020-2025.
As an organisation participating in the Horizon 2020 Programme, Moverim has chosen to support the Commission’s effort to strengthen gender equality within research and innovation field. Since our foundation, we have always championed gender equality within the firm and among our partners. This strong commitment is at the core of our Gender Equality Plan.

The Gender Equality Plan is a document that formalises the firm’s gender strategy into measurable objectives and actions.
For the period 2021-2023, we are pursuing three main objectives:

  • Promoting a gender equality culture among the firm’s partners, incoming trainees and clients;

  • Promoting a gender-sensitive approach in the recruitment and career development of the firm’s partners and trainees;
  • Promoting integration of work with family and personal life.

To reach these objectives, we have planned a set of actions and dedicated resources. The plan represents the first step of a long term strategy for the incoming years. We will periodically review our policy as we reach the objectives mentioned above.

To find out more about the actions we are carrying on, you can download our Gender Equality Plan for 2021-2023. You can also find the letter of commitment in which we pledge to work for a more diverse and inclusive society.
