Gender balance (2019-2020)
Dáta an imeachta: 09/01/2020
The EU has adopted legislation, issues recommendations, exchanges and good practices and provides funding to support action by Member States. The concepts of EU gender equality policy were shaped by European Court of Justice rulings.
The European Parliament (EP) regularly adopts own initiative reports on gender issues, calling for more efforts to improve gender equality.
The EP has always been very active on achieving equality between men and women and has a standing committee dedicated to women’s rights and gender equality. Every year, Parliament marks International Women’s Day on 8 March and raises awareness by organising events.
