"Ladies and gentlemen, the establishment of the European Institute for Gender Equality, which will facilitate the elimination of all forms of gender discrimination throughout Europe, is of paramount importance. I agree with the wish expressed by the rapporteurs that the activities of the Institute should not be restricted merely to data collection, record keeping and research. The analyses should be integrated in the policies of Member States innovatively, with the objective that equal opportunities become a main political guideline and mainstreaming for legislators. At the same time, the results of the research should be made available to the general public, to enable European citizens to adopt a conscious position regarding the issues surrounding gender equality. However, this requires that the relationship of the Institute with the civil sector and the forums responsible for communication issues is strengthened and institutionalised. I would like to call attention to the fact that cooperation with the media and the employment of modern means of communication constitute an important task of the Institute! Resources must be made available to ensure that the results of research go beyond the professional sphere and are available and useable as widely as possible. The work of the Institute will only be effective if it really operates as the European network of gender equality, if it is able to coordinate Member State centres, organisations and specialists involved in the general implementation of equal opportunities, and if its message reaches the governments and the citizens of Europe. I congratulate the rapporteurs and propose that the document be accepted! Thank you for the floor!"@en1
