The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) has reaffirmed its commitment to combating gender inequality and violence against women, urging a shift from words to action. In a newly adopted resolution, the EESC outlines priorities such as strengthening legal protections, increasing funding for women’s rights organizations, and addressing gender-based violence through comprehensive policies. The Committee highlights the need for better enforcement of existing laws and greater political will to ensure lasting change. By prioritizing economic empowerment, workplace equality, and protection from violence, the EESC aims to push forward the EU’s commitment to gender equality.
