Dans l’enseignement supérieur et la recherche, le ministère poursuivra ses axes prioritaires (mixité des filières de formation, lutte contre les violences, soutien aux études de genre) avec un focus sur la lutte contre les violences sexistes et sexuelles. Cette violence, grâce aux initiatives des associations, des établissements, des chercheurs et du ministère, est de moins en moins taboue et mieux prise en compte par les acteurs et actrices de l’enseignement supérieur et de la recherche. Par ailleurs, le ministère soutiendra une approche globale et transversale des politiques d’égalité. Dans ce cadre, la question de l’égalité sera davantage intégrée, sous tous ses aspects, dans le dialogue contractuel entre les établissements et le ministère. Enfin, dans la continuité de la 9e conférence européenne pour l’égalité des sexes, la France portera ses propositions auprès de l’Union européenne et participera à de nombreux projets européens et internationaux pour l’égalité femmes-hommes.

La production de connaissances revient aux enseignants-chercheurs et aux chercheurs. Pour accomplir cette mission, l'apport de compétences de nombreux ingénieurs et techniciens est essentiel et de multiples savoirs et savoir-faire sont nécessaires à tous les niveaux de responsabilité.
