"The basis of European society, founded on solidarity, is access to rights, resources and services, including various forms of education, without any discrimination. Access by all segments of society to education and instruction, and the abolition of gender-based stereotyping, are preconditions for economic growth and increased competitiveness. They are also necessary to promote social integration, to help reach Europe’s demographic and competitive aims. Education contributes to the fulfilment of people’s potential, enables them to adapt to the ever newer challenges of a knowledge-based labour market, remain marketable, avoid the danger of marginalisation and acquire useful knowledge to satisfy the continuously changing demands of the market. Women aspire to the same things, but stubborn gender stereotypes make their careers more difficult in nearly all fields, even in education. The low level of basic training, unemployment, or else limited life choices due to various factors, may lead to the marginalisation of large groups of people, especially as regards women. For this reason, access to a variety of educational forms and opportunities plays a key role in the fight against social marginalisation, in the struggle for women’s integration in the labour force and in battling the dangers of alienation. Since investing in education and training takes a long time to pay off, governments, both local and national, have to make long-term plans while making decisions about their spending priorities. It is worth it, for it is in the service of a Europe built on solidarity and prosperity."@en1
