Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• European Women's Lobby: Largest European umbrella network of women's rights organizations advocating for EU gender equality policy. Comparable because it coordinates member organizations, produces policy briefs, and conducts awareness campaigns on workplace equality, though at a pan-European scale.
• Haut Conseil à l'Égalité entre les femmes et les hommes (HCE): Independent French consultative body producing annual reports, policy recommendations, and benchmark studies on gender equality. Overlaps with the Laboratoire's Pacte and survey work but operates with a government mandate and considerably larger institutional footprint.
• Mixité Professionnelle (ANDRH): French HR professionals' association with a dedicated diversity and gender equality practice. Comparable because it addresses workplace gender equality through research, conferences, and training for HR professionals, the same audience the Laboratoire targets with guides and toolkits.
• ONU Femmes France: French representation of UN Women, which advocates for gender equality and women's empowerment globally. Comparable in mission and thematic focus but operates at a much larger scale with international funding and policy engagement.

Direct peers

• Observatoire de l'Égalité femmes-hommes: French observatory producing data, surveys, and fact sheets on gender equality across employment, education, and politics. Comparable to the Laboratoire's survey-driven, evidence-based communication style and its focus on workplace indicators.
• Equipop: French non-profit that campaigns and conducts research on gender equality, particularly in workplace and health contexts. Comparable as a non-profit producing research, advocacy, and partnerships targeting professional equality outcomes in France.
• Fondation des Femmes: Major French women's foundation that funds legal action, research, and advocacy on gender equality. Direct peer because both organizations operate as French non-profits producing research, guides, and advocacy campaigns on workplace and societal gender inequality, and have co-partnered on caregiver research and International Women's Rights Day events.
• Le Collectif Je t'aide: French collective focused on informal caregivers that co-published the 'Aidante et salariée' guide with the Laboratoire. Comparable because it operates in the same non-profit, advocacy, and guide-publication model in a strongly overlapping thematic area (women in the workplace, caregiving).
• Centre Hubertine Auclert: Île-de-France regional center for gender equality providing research, training, and resources to public institutions and associations. Comparable because it produces toolkits, surveys, and policy proposals on professional equality aimed at employers and policymakers, directly overlapping the Laboratoire's target audiences.

Emerging players
