Міжнародний жіночий день відзначається щорічно 8 березня, щоб вшанувати досягнення жінок і привернути увагу до прав жінок. Це нагода підвищити рівень обізнаності про такі питання, як гендерна рівність, репродуктивні права, боротьба з насильством та жорстоким поводженням з жінками. Рівність між жінками і чоловіками завжди була однією з основних цінностей і цілей Європейського Союзу, але поставлена мета все ще не досягнута повністю.

Як ЄС бореться за права жінок

Op 8 maart vieren we Internationale Vrouwendag om de prestaties van vrouwen te erkennen en vrouwenrechten onder de aandacht te brengen. Net als in eerdere jaren is het een gelegenheid om stil te staan bij kwesties als gendergelijkheid, reproductieve rechten en de bestrijding van geweld tegen en misbruik van vrouwen. Gelijkheid van vrouwen en mannen is altijd een van de kernwaarden en belangrijkste doelstellingen van de Europese Unie geweest. Toch hebben we deze gelijkheid nog steeds niet volledig bereikt.

De strijd van de EU voor vrouwenrechten

Vrouwelijke genitale verminking omvat alle procedures waarmee de vrouwelijke geslachtsorganen om niet-medische redenen worden gewijzigd of beschadigd. De praktijk wordt toegepast om culturele, religieuze en soms sociale redenen, maar heeft geen gezondheidsvoordelen en kan zelfs ernstige gevolgen hebben voor de gezondheid en het welzijn, zowel onmiddellijk na de ingreep als op de lange termijn. Wat wordt er gedaan om hieraan een einde te maken?

Nultolerantie voor vrouwelijke genitale verminking

Gender-balanced representation among the decision-makers of the European Union is an important step towards full realisation of the principle of equality between women and men enshrined in the EU Treaties. The Union has made steady and significant progress, starting from a very low presence of women among EU Commissioners and Members of the European Parliament at the time when those institutions were created. The European Parliament is today one of the world's most gender-balanced representative assemblies, but there are still significant divergences between EU countries.

De afgelopen eeuw zijn de vooruitzichten voor vrouwen en meisjes in de wetenschap over de hele wereld verbeterd, maar we hebben nog heel wat voor de boeg. Door de pandemie komt de beoogde gelijkheid onder druk te staan en boeken we op meerdere gebieden minder snel vooruitgang. Met deze podcast viert het Europees Parlement de Internationale Dag van Vrouwen en Meisjes in de Wetenschap. We gaan in op de rol die vrouwen in de strijd tegen de COVID-19-pandemie hebben gespeeld, hoewel ze zelf ook bijzonder zwaar door de gezondheidscrisis zijn getroffen.
