EU Report – Gender Equality in Power and Decision-Making

Report – Gender Equality in Power and Decision-Making Review of the Implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action in the EU Member States
“The vision of the European Institute for Gender Equality is to make gender equality a reality for all women and men in the European Union (EU) and beyond. Besides a fundamentally essential value to all individuals, gender equality is also an important policy goal of the EU. As the European knowledge centre on gender equality issues, EIGE strives to support and contribute to improved gender equality within the EU. This publication is part of EIGE’s broader mandate of monitoring EU progress towards gender equality within EU policy framework, specifically in relation to the strategic objectives of the Beijing Platform for Action (acknowledged by the European Council in 1995). The report looks at how Member States (MS) fare in terms of gender equality in power and decision-making positions within bodies of public, economic and social power between 2003 and 2014. In addition, the report presents new data on decision-making in sport organisations.”
