Gender equality is the cornerstone of inclusive growth. Providing equal access to public office and economic opportunities to both men and women is vital for achieving a more sustainable economy. Failing to do so means losing the human capital of approximately half the populations, thus heavily compromising countries’ full potential for growth and national development.
The European way of life calls for the inclusion and equal treatment of men and women at all levels, for a Union that translates diversity into a competitive advantage. In this respect, the European Commission is working within the Skills Agenda and the European Education Area, to make education accessible and inclusive, encouraging lifelong learning, reskilling, and cross-border learning for all men and women.
