No site da organização (em inglês) pode ler-se:
«Lisbon, 10 October 2014] Today, the European Women’s Lobby (EWL) launched its
report which assesses the
implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action in Europe, 20 years after its
adoption by the international community. The launch of EWL Beijing+20 report
took place in the context of the Annual Meeting of the European Women’s Lobby,
the largest umbrella organisation for women’s rights in Europe.
Adopted two years after the 1993 Vienna World Conference on Human Rights, the
Beijing Platform for Action aimed to bring into light the structural
inequalities and human rights violations faced by all women and girls on the
planet, and setting the ground for concrete action to realise de jure and de
facto equality between women and men. The report of the European Women’s Lobby
provides a picture of the situation of women and girls in the European Union
(EU), based on the collective assessment of its 2000 member organisations.
EWL President Viviane Teitelbaum said: “20 years later, much has
been achieved, but much remains to be done. While we should be celebrating the
implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action, our report shows that women
and girls still face inequality, violence, discrimination and insecurity. Women
and girls can’t wait 20 more years to enjoy their full human rights.”
Hosted by the Lisbon Municipality, the event gathered strong statements from:
Executive Director of UN Women Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka; Portuguese Secretary of
State of Parliamentary Affairs and Equality Teresa Morais; representatives of
the Italian Presidency of the EU; Director of the European Institute for Gender
Equality Virginija Langbakk; and Member of the European Parliament Ana
Gomes.
The celebration of Beijing+20 comes at a strategic time for the women’s
movement and the EU policies on gender equality. In 2015, a new international
framework for development will be adopted, with new Sustainable Development
Goals, amongst which women’s rights and gender equality will be the subject of a
standalone goal. At EU level, a new strategy for gender equality needs to be
adopted from 2016 on».
