Furthermore, in many cases, contributing effectively to the objectives of Europe 2020 and the Innovation Union will require solutions to be developed which are interdisciplinary in nature and therefore cut across multiple specific objectives of Horizon 2020. Particular attention will be given to responsible research and innovation. GenderEqual opportunities for women and men will be addressed as a cross-cutting issue in order to rectify imbalances between women and men, and to integrate a gender dimensio. Horizon 2020 must respect scientific excellence and professional qualification of research professionals when promoting equal opportunities for men and women in research and innovation programming and content. Horizon 2020 includes specific provisions to incentivise such cross-cutting actions, including by an efficient bundling of budgets. This includes also for instance the possibility for the societal challenges and enabling and industrial technologies to make use of the provisions for financial instruments and the dedicated SME instrument.
