Opening @EESC_SOC debate "Dismantling gender stereotypes in education", I highlighted the key role of education in achieving ⚖️#GenderEquality.
Educating girls and upskilling women means empowering them to build a better future. It is also a precondition for thriving economies.

On #WomensDay and every day, we are committed to ensure all persons’ right to education free from bias & stereotypes.
#CivilSociety should transform bias through education & communities, moving from exclusion to inclusion.

RT @CSOGroupEESC: On #IWD2023, I want to highlight the need to lift the barriers that prevent women from accessing various skills, professions & jobs. In this #EuropeanYearOfSkills, it would be appropriate to remove ingrained norms disadvantaging women in the workplace!
