lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I would like to congratulate Mrs Kauppi. We all agree on the need to increase the birth rate in Europe in order to improve the demographic situation. If this is successful, and it has to be successful, it will mean that a significant number of women, especially young women, will have to leave the job market at least temporarily. This is a problem, as already there is a shortage of workers in many parts of Europe. For example, science in Europe is experiencing a shortfall of about 700 000 scientists. Despite this, in Europe barely one doctor in four is a woman, and only one out of ten professors. This is in a situation where, in Europe, more women than men are completing higher education. This means that they are well prepared for academic work, but they interrupt this work and do not continue with it. In each sector the incentives and facilities offered to women to take up work have to be different. For example, in education there are a number of simple steps. First of all, the possibility of doing academic work at home. Secondly, organisation of very comfortable and affordable nurseries within the walls of institutes or universities. Thirdly, childcare either by men or by women. Fourthly, the possibility of obtaining academic degrees during maternity leave. Finally, fifthly, making sure that men and women earn the same for the same job. Europe cannot allow a situation to continue where educated and skilled women lose out in academic areas just because they give birth to children. Fortunately someone has become involved in this area. UNESCO, together with L’Oréal, has for some years been running a project for women in the academic sector. We shall see the results, the very good results, of this project, in an exhibition opening next Monday, 1 October, in the European Parliament in Brussels, on the ground floor, opposite the KBC bank. I would like to extend a warm invitation to all of you to attend."@en1
