Report informali e contributi di ricerca hanno riferito il quadro complesso di pratiche lavorative determinato dalla repentina adozione del lavoro da remoto come strumento di contrasto alla diffusione del Covid-19. Il presente contributo mette a fuoco il tema della conciliazione tra domini di vita, elemento ampiamente associato al benessere, nella popolazione specifica del personale accademico docente-ricercatore. Attraverso uno studio realizzato nei primi mesi del 2021, 2365 docenti-ricercatori/trici da circa venti Atenei italiani hanno partecipato a una survey online promossa dalla Conferenza Nazionale degli Organismi di Pari-tà delle Università Italiane in collaborazione con il gruppo di ricerca nazionale Saph2@work. La ricerca evidenzia un aumento del conflitto fra tempi di vita e di lavoro percepito particolarmente dalle donne, che rischia di amplificare le dise-guaglianze di genere che ancora persistono nell’accademia. I risultati dell’indagine suggeriscono una discussione critica di modelli di lavoro accade-mico volta a tematizzare adeguatamente le recenti trasformazioni. Le evidenze empiriche fornite dallo studio possono contribuire all’elaborazione di azioni e misure che gli organi decisionali della governance accademica sono chiamati ad adottare in tema di politiche di equità e inclusione attraverso l’attuazione di Gender Equality Plan.;
