For scientific and organisational support for the Expert Commission, the “Agency for the Second Gender Equality Report of the German Federal Government” has been established at the Institute for Social Work and Social Education.

Among the tasks of this agency is the context-related and organisational preparation and follow-up of Commission meetings as well as of fora and expert discussions. Moreover, it is responsible for the dissemination of expertise commissioned by the Expert Commission. In addition to this, it supports the Commission in the scientific preparation of the expertise and in delivering presentations. The agency is also responsible for PR tasks and for budget administration.

Besides its work for the Expert Commission, the agency supports the federal government in assessing the current status of implementation of recommendations from the First Gender Equality Report.

The agency is made up from an interdisciplinary team (political science, sociology, social sciences, law and economics) and reflects the interdisciplinary composition of the Expert Commission. It works from its offices in Berlin and Frankfurt a. M.
