General Information on Gender Equality in Europe: 1

Here you a collection of websites very useful to work on Gender Equality:




On the website of the United Nations there is one of the 17 objectives: 
Goal 5: 
Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls: a detailed definition of this objective: 
"There has been progress over the last decades: More girls are going to school, fewer girls are forced into early marriage, more women are serving in parliament and positions of leadership, and laws are being reformed to advance gender equality", but there is still a long way  to go on...



The EIGE website is the European Institute for Gender Equality, this is an essential site for those who want to know something about the topic.



As it is well known Wikipedia is a very important resource: "The Global Gender Gap Report was first published in 2006 by the World Economic Forum. The 2020 report (published in 2019) covers 153 countries. The Global Gender Gap Index is an index designed to measure gender equality.

The index is designed to "measure gender-based gaps in access to resources and opportunities in countries rather than the actual levels of the available resources and opportunities in those countries."





On Wikipedia "2014 was described as a watershed year for women's rights, by newspapers such as The Guardian. It was described as a year in which women's voices acquired greater legitimacy and authority. Time magazine said 2014 "may have been the best year for women since the dawn of time"."
