AFAEMME participates in the First Meeting of the EC’s Network of Women in Decision-making in Politics and Economy

On June 2nd Mrs. Mª Helena de Felipe participated in the first meeting of the European Commission’s Network of Women in Decision-making in Politics and Economy. The network is an initiative of the EU Commissioner for Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities, Mr. Vladimir Spidla and it involves 15 other European organizations belonging to the EU27. It is expected that the work experience and the reputation of the organisations participating in this project will contribute to achieving gender balance in decision-making, breaking down the existing barriers to women’s career progress and giving them a higher visibility and profile.
