Abstract
ABSTRACT This article explores the aims, strategies, developments, successes, and challenges of Gendered Innovations from its inception in 2005 to today. Gendered Innovations employs methods of sex, gender, and intersectional analysis to overcome past bias and, importantly, to create new knowledge. It seeks to harness the creative power of sex, gender, and intersectional analysis for innovation and discovery. The operative question is: does considering these factors add valuable dimensions to research? Do they take research in new directions? Gendered Innovations: (1) develops practical methods of sex, gender, and intersectional analysis specifically for natural scientists and engineers; and (2) provides case studies as concrete illustrations of how sex, gender, and intersectional analysis leads to discovery. The article discusses where Gendered Innovations fits within the equality, diversity, and inclusion landscape. The article focuses on the international reach of the project, collaborative and interdisciplinary methods for developing materials, sample case studies, and policy initiatives that support excellence in science. Case studies previewed include machine translation, facial recognition, menstrual cups, and marine science; these examples work to support social equalities and also the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
