"Today, 8 March 2011, is International Women’s Day. I voted in favour of this report because preventing and reducing the poverty endured by women is a vital component of the fundamental principle of social solidarity, to which the European Union is committed.
Female poverty is not only the result of the recent economic crisis, but also the consequence of a variety of factors such as stereotyping, the gender pay gap, the obstacles created by the failure to reconcile family life and work, the longer life expectancy of women and, more generally, the various forms of gender discrimination, which mostly affect women.
The report urges EU Member States to implement mechanisms to fight poverty, which has a woman’s face, and I therefore voted in favour of the text."@en1
