| Women and girls in the European Union (EU) experience persistent gender\[W9]\discrimination and gender-based violence, as evidence collected by the\[W9]\EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) confirms. This severely limits\[W9]\the ability of women and girls to enjoy their rights and to participate on\[W9]\an equal footing in society. Recent revelations on the global extent to\[W9]\which women and girls experience sexual harassment stress the urgent\[W9]\need to tackle socially, culturally and structurally entrenched gender\[W9]\inequalities. This FRA contribution to the third Annual Colloquium on\[W9]\Fundamental Rights `Women's rights in turbulent times` looks at core\[W9]\human rights commitments. It balances these against selected evidence\[W9]\on gender discrimination, sexist hate speech and gender-based violence\[W9]\against women and girls in the EU. The paper underlines the need for\[W9]\EU institutions and Member States to stand firm in their commitment\[W9]\to safeguard the dignity of all women and girls in the EU. It therefore\[W9]\highlights concrete areas of intervention where the EU and its Member\[W9]\States could work actively to turn this commitment into a reality. | |
