Résumé
One year ago, on 5 March 2020, the Commission adopted its Gender Equality Strategy 2020-2025. This is the first report under the new strategy. It takes stock of where the EU and its Member States stand on gender equality one year after the adoption of the Strategy. It sets out the EU's achievements and gives inspiring examples from the Member States and EU-funded projects for each of the strategy's five key areas: 1) being free from violence and stereotypes; 2) thriving in a gender equal economy; 3) leading equally throughout society; 4) gender mainstreaming and funding and 5) promoting gender equality and women's empowerment across the world.
