“GAGE” project refers to a common activity of Saint Mary of the Woods College (USA) and University of West Attica in the framework of a Greek and American Gender Equality Program.
GAGE Program is designed to address gender equality in Greece. Among EU nations, Greece ranks last in gender equality, negatively impacting its ability to compete for economic, social, and cultural development initiatives. The initiative is fully funded, with the support of the U.S. Embassy in Athens, Greece, and involves two educational institutions Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College in Indiana, USA, and the University of Wes Attica, in Athens Greece, which have recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
The main goal of the program is to strengthen the educational ties and the student mobility of both institutions by working together on developing gender equality case studies which they will be applied to multiple types of organizations in the Greek economy.
