“Following the discussions that took place during the INSU AA 2019 prospect, at the CSAA and the actions of the SF2A in terms of parity/equality, the INSU entrusted the Astronomy-Astrophysics domain with being the pilot for the implementation of a network of Equality correspondents. This initiative is also the result of close cooperation with the Mission pour la place des femmes au CNRS (Mission for the place of women in the CNRS) led by Elisabeth Kohler”

Thus IRAP is at the intersection of this new network and the one launched three years ago by the DR14.
