The forthcoming gender equality strategy will outline the concrete measures that the European Commission intends to carry out over the next five years to advance gender equality in Europe. It will build on the recent EU roadmap of March 2025, which sets out a long-term vision for fully achieving women’s rights.
The consultation offers an opportunity for rural voices to influence policies that promote inclusive and equitable development across European regions.
