lpv:translated text	"Women comprise 50% of the population of the EU countries, and are therefore a significant sector of the workforce. Furthermore, Europe has the highest proportion of older women in the world. One of the goals of the Europe 2020 strategy is to combat poverty and promote employment by increasing the rate of employment to 75% and reducing the number of people in poverty by 20 million. In order to achieve this objective, the situation of older women needs to be assessed. In fact, older women face at least a twofold discrimination in the labour market based on gender and age, combined with their greater vulnerability in the labour market caused by women-specific work trajectories. There is a need to combat these stigmas with inclusive policies. I believe that proper management of the population’s ageing process and the inevitable changes in society will certainly contribute to sounder economic and social policy. As such, I voted for this report, which presents an analysis and concludes with the need to integrate a gender and age dimension into all active ageing strategies at all levels of governance."@en1
