Gender Education in Medicine for Switzerland is a collaborative project between several medical and nursing universities across Switzerland.

The project aims at providing a web platform to share teaching materials related to sex and gender, in order to promote their integration into the academic curriculum of students. The platform hosts teaching materials generously provided by teachers and researchers from the partner institutions. 

This project contributes to the strengthening of social justice and the transformation of detrimental gender stereotypes and gender norms. Through this synergistic approach, the quality of education will be enhanced, and, ultimately, patients will benefit from a better quality of care.

The GEMS platform is part of the project “Sex and Gender integration in the Swiss Medical Curriculum” funded by swissuniversities (P-7 call 2021-2024: Diversity, inclusion and equal opportunities in university development).
