Résumé
EWLs recommendations to the European Parliament to ensure the implementation of the Gender Equality Strategy (2020-2025) leaves no woman behind. The ongoing public health crisis of COVID-19 further places these inequalities at risk of further aggravation and will have significant and long-term impacts on many women and girls who face increased risks of violence, poverty and threats to their economic independence. In this difficult time, EWL recalls and supports the political leadership and commitment of the European Commission in setting out this Strategy to put equality between women and men back at the heart of the EU project as it becomes the driving engine in the post COVID-19 period and beyond.
