  The underrepresentation of women in Computer Science and Engineering is a
pervasive issue, impacting the enrolment and graduation rates of female
students as well as the presence of women in leadership positions in academia
and industry. The European Network For Gender Balance in Informatics (EUGAIN)
COST action seeks to share data, experiences, best practices, and lessons from
failures, and to provide actionable tools that may contribute to the
advancement of gender balance in the field. This paper summarises results from
the Ph.D./Postdoc to Professor workgroup that were gathered in two booklets of
best practices. Specifically, we introduce the Equality Maturity Model (EMM), a
conceptual tool aimed at supporting organisations in measuring how they are
doing concerning equality and identifying potential areas of improvement and
that was inspired by both booklets.
