Est-ce que l’UE a un impact positif sur les droits des femmes ?

En 1957, l’article 119 du traité de Rome sur l’égalité salariale est intégré… pas du tout pour des raisons féministes, mais pour éviter la concurrence déloyale dans le cadre du libre marché ! Alors que les ministres siégeant au Conseil ont limité l’article en retirant l’obligation de résultat pour les États membres, les féministes se sont saisies de l’article.

Elles sont à l’époque sceptiques face à une Europe jargonnante et centrée sur des enjeux économiques.

I was yesterday at the @Europarl_BE to represent @ENoMW in front of the group #LEFT and share our analysis of the directive proposal on violence against #women and girls by the @EuropeanCommiss There is currently no specific legal instrument that comprehensively addresses violence against women at #EU level. The most comprehensive international framework is the @coe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Girls (Istanbul Convention)

I represented @osezlefeminisme today in front of a group of UK parliamentarians working to end all forms of commercial sexual exploitation. Alongside me were @CATWIntl and @Ruchiragupta, Indian activist. We denounced the violent system that “pornography” is covering
1/6 Pornography is a billions dollar industry that serves as an alibi for Grave Human Rights Violations against women and girls & organized international crime. #G7 countries are consuming the most pornography worldwide. The UK was the third country for pornHub traffic in 2019.
