This deliverable builds on lessons learned through SUPPORTER activities, including training sessions, mutual learning workshops, monitoring and mentoring meetings, roadmaps, and learning diaries. It provides guidelines for designing and sustaining 4I-GEPs, as well as recommendations tailored to diverse stakeholders in the sports ecosystem. The SUPPORTER Implementing Organisations (IOs) – eight higher education sport institutions in Central and Eastern Europe – have developed intersectional, innovative, inclusive and potentially impactful GEPs to achieve structural and sustainable change in research and higher education. These plans contribute to institutional transformation by embedding gender+ equality across all levels of activity. By focusing on the 4Is, higher education institutions can ensure that gender+ equality becomes an integrated part of everyday academic practice. The process of developing 4I-GEPs included training, mutual learning (ML), monitoring and mentoring meetings (M&M), roadmap (RM) development, and the use of learning diaries (LD) throughout the development process.
