MAGEEQ - "Policy frames and implementation problems: The case of gender mainstreeming" - the project seeks to construct a conceptual framework to map out the various dimensions of gender equality policy frames and to improve methods for assessments of the (in)consistencies between various policy levels, in the field of gender equality policies, especially for Gender Mainstreaming.

It also provides a database of organisations and individuals involved in women's rights.- PUBACC - "Public Accountability in European Contemporary Contexts" re-examines the principle of public accountability in science and technology policy- and decision-making.
