Abstract To achieve long-term impact in the arena of gender equality, museums need to go beyond thematic educational activities and exhibitions. Museums need to become permanent spaces dedicated to problems of gender equality, advocate for changes that promote gender equality internally and externally and become acknowledged on local and national level as trusted organisations that bring together stakeholders and advocate for a more gender inclusive society. They need to serve as permanent places where questions around gender and science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) are addressed on different levels. To this end, 14 science centres and museums in Europe and Israel worked together for three years as part of a common, European-funded project (Hypatia) in order to become Hubs for gender equality in their communities. Together, they created synergies, working with schools, industry and research centres as agents of change. At the end of the project, they listed a series of recommendations for the long-term implementation of Gender inclusion in STEM communication. They based these recommendations on the findings of the Horizon 2020 funded project ‘Hypatia’ in which they collaborated from 2015 until 2018, on their own experiences, and shared learning. Participating museums selected four places and sectors in which they planned to implement changes, thereby ensuring their actions would be sustainable: their own museum/science centre/network of science centres; research and industry institutions; schools; and within other informal science education organisations. Using tools developed by the project, including a Theoretical Framework for gender inclusion, a Toolkit of ready-to-use, hands-on activities for teenagers that address gender, national ‘Hub’ models, and input from young people, the Hypatia Project offers now insight and information on how the museum community can address gender inclusion in local and national communities. The lessons learned demonstrate how museums can act as tools to promote equitable STEM educational programming, preparing the next gender inclusive STEM-ready workforce.

行动计划使博物馆能够解决性别不平等问题

摘要 为了在性别平等领域产生长期影响，博物馆需要超越主题教育活动和展览。博物馆需要成为致力于解决性别平等问题的永久空间，倡导在内部和外部促进性别平等的变革，并成为地方和国家层面公认的值得信赖的组织，将利益相关者聚集在一起并倡导一个更加性别包容的社会。它们需要作为永久性场所，在不同层面解决有关性别和科学、技术、工程和数学 (STEM) 的问题。为此，欧洲和以色列的 14 个科学中心和博物馆合作了三年，作为欧洲资助的共同项目 (Hypatia) 的一部分，以成为其社区性别平等的中心。一起，他们创造了协同效应，与作为变革推动者的学校、工业和研究中心合作。在项目结束时，他们为长期实施 STEM 传播中的性别包容列出了一系列建议。他们根据地平线 2020 资助的“Hypatia”项目的结果提出了这些建议，在该项目中，他们在 2015 年至 2018 年期间根据自己的经验和共同学习进行了合作。参与的博物馆选择了他们计划实施变革的四个地方和部门，从而确保他们的行动是可持续的：他们自己的博物馆/科学中心/科学中心网络；研究和工业机构；学校；以及其他非正式的科学教育组织。使用项目开发的工具，包括性别包容的理论框架，一个面向青少年的即用型动手活动工具包，可解决性别问题、国家“中心”模式和年轻人的意见，Hypatia 项目现在提供有关博物馆社区如何解决当地性别包容问题的见解和信息和民族社区。吸取的经验教训展示了博物馆如何作为促进公平 STEM 教育计划的工具，为下一个性别包容的 STEM 就绪劳动力做好准备。
