"Mr President, I would also like to stress that, although this debate is being held at night, it has seen a significant level of participation from MEPs, which is unusual for a debate at this hour. Such participation, in spite of the unfavourable conditions in which the debate is taking place, makes this a victory in the fight for women’s rights and equality.
Secondly, I would also like to say that the speeches that have been heard today generally point out concrete actions and ideas which we must now put into practice. All of those here can rise to this challenge and put them into practice. Lastly, I believe that this strengthening of political will to put the proposals, words and promises into practice is something that I would like to be preserved as a very positive aspect of tonight’s debate. This increased political will, whether in all the policies of the EU and the Member States, or in specific actions to give greater visibility to women so that equality is achieved along with social progress, makes this a key contribution, and we hope that four years from now – as the Commissioner has said – we can achieve a positive balance out of the work that we have carried out, with Parliament, the Commission and the Council.
I would therefore like to conclude by saying that with this increased political will and attention to women’s dreams and aspirations, we can make an important contribution to their emancipation and to making their dreams come true. This must take the form of personal and professional fulfilment, through consideration of each of their lives, with work, jobs with rights, participation in social life, and, where applicable, in economic and political life, and with greater fulfilment within their families."@en1
