“EU gender equality strategy is a missed opportunity to address structural and interconnected discrimination & inequalities. It again shows how overlooking race – & especially racialised women – in policies totally undermines the potential of the concept” says @KMTaylorBerlin
ENAR welcomes the #EU gender equality strategy.
However, racialised women must be at the centre of equality policies for them to be truly intersectional.

Women in Europe must be free from violence and harmful stereotypes. ✋
We call for legal measures to criminalise violence against women, including sexual harassment, abuse, and female genital mutilation.
Platforms should address online violence against women.
