"Ladies and gentlemen, economic liberalisation provided the basis for Estonia’s rapid growth. Liberalisation is now the motor for the economies of Europe and the world, but success has its price, which is increased emotional and economic pressure on families, the uncertainty of labour relations and social stratification. Globalisation affects women more than it does men, as has been mentioned here. Women bear a disproportionate share of unpaid work. Their role in making political and economic decisions, however, is unjustifiably small. This argument, which until now has taken place mostly on the level of emotions and beliefs, requires more facts. The compilation of a scientific ranking of gender equity in the labour market would be an effective measure for the reduction of inequality, but one must also find the facts on one’s own. I have for some time called on Estonian society to set the objective of 40% female participation in the councils of companies. What is possible in Norway could become a reality throughout the world. The report also states the same position. Europe’s message should be simple and unanimous – gender inequality is a thing of the past. That is indeed the message of the report, which is an excellent document from which to move forward."@en1
