Investigating The Greek Higher Education Gender Equality Policy Landscape Under an Enhanced Critical Frame Analysis Lens

Despite the existence of a formalized set of EU strategies, problems seem to abound when it comes to the implementation of Gender Equality policies in universities. Specifically in the Greek context, the potential of GEPs to generate institutional and cultural change is highly contested. Aiming to illuminate how GE is conceptualized and implemented in this context but also to add to the methodological realm of blending constructivist with constructionist approaches, the critical frame analysis of the maximum variation sample of eight Greek universities’ policies revealed the persistence of the numeric discourse in women’s representation and a tokenistic, non-disruptive approach to proposing solutions. It has nevertheless also brought to light a progressive cluster of GE Committees that have managed to push their cause forward thanks to the heightened importance attributed to networking, and deliberations.
