Hosted by Lucia Seel International Consulting GmbH, the two-day event marked an important moment for the consortium: reviewing project progress, refining the final steps ahead of an upcoming major milestone, and outlining the roadmap for the remaining six months of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past months, the consortium has concentrated its efforts on developing a <strong>video toolkit<\/strong> offering practical resources for SMEs on how to implement gender equality actions. In parallel, the team has been finalizing an <strong>e-learning platform<\/strong> with two tailored training pathways \u2013 one designed specifically for SMEs and another for cluster organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking ahead, an <strong>innovative methodology<\/strong> is being prepared to support clusters in delivering educational workshops aimed at embedding gender mainstreaming strategies within their ecosystems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project\u2019s visibility within the cluster community continues to grow. Through consistent communication and outreach, the awareness and uptake of the project\u2019s outcomes have significantly increased. A strong example is the <strong>PENELOPE Gender Equality Training Handbook<\/strong>, which has been downloaded nearly 600 times in just 15 months \u2013 a clear indication of demand for practical guidance in the field. <em>(Access the handbook here: <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/penelope-project.org\/gender-mainstreaming-for-cluster-teams-handbook\/\"><em>https:\/\/penelope-project.org\/gender-mainstreaming-for-cluster-teams-handbook\/<\/em><\/a><em>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"560\" src=\"https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/2-1-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6129\" srcset=\"https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/2-1-1-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/2-1-1-1-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/2-1-1-1-768x538.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Linz meeting also provided an opportunity to deepen dialogue with regional stakeholders, notably through an exchange with the <strong>Human Capital Management network<\/strong> of <strong>Business Upper Austria<\/strong>. This facilitated valuable insights into the region\u2019s approach to parental leave and career development, particularly through the <strong>KOMPASS initiative<\/strong>, which was recently featured in one of the project\u2019s training videos in an interview with <strong>Irene Moser<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A further highlight came from <strong>Marlene Haudum<\/strong>, who presented the <strong>Upper Austrian Speakers\u2019 Platform<\/strong> \u2013 a dynamic, continuously updated database of women experts across sectors including business, science, media, environment, and sustainability. This initiative impressed the partners as a standout good practice with strong potential for replication across other European regions, supporting visibility and representation of women as speakers at diverse events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"875\" height=\"656\" src=\"https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/linz-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6118\" srcset=\"https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/linz-2-1.jpg 875w, https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/linz-2-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/linz-2-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 875px) 100vw, 875px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"431\" src=\"https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/3-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/3-1-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/3-1-1-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/amueblacooperacion.es\/files\/3-1-1-768x414.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On April 10\u201311, 2025, the partners of the PENELOPE Project convened in Linz for their fourth project meeting.
