"Madam President, today is my birthday. Tomorrow, 8 March, is International Women’s Day, and also by chance, my mother’s birthday. I am so proud that in the midst of these auspicious days, celebrating different generations of the fight for women’s rights and gender equality, this Parliament will be voting on a report that I have co-authored, a report the promotes the highest standards and sets a best practice example in respect of institutional and interinstitutional gender equality.
From its initial foundation, women’s rights and gender equality have been at the heart of the European project. It is therefore very fitting that on International Women’s Day we take a good hard look at how we do things here, at who makes the decisions and whether or not we can see ourselves reflected in the power structures. Gender mainstreaming requires commitment from both men and women to effect change. I commend this report."@en1
