  • MCWO: Working for More Worth for Women Businesscommerceindustrytrade
    MCWO: working for more worth for women BusinessCommerceIndustryTrade 23 January 2005|0 Simonne Pace talks to Dr Romina Bartolo, one of the co-founders of the Malta Confederation of Women's Organisations, set up last May, on how women in Malta can be enabled to give their rightful contribution to society, despite lack of encouragement Three women have joined forces to set up the Malta Confederation of Women's Organisations (MCWO), an organisation aiming to encompass all women and women's organisations. It is chaired by Dr Romina Bartolo, a young and enterprising lawyer and mother who is EU information officer at the Union Haddiema Maghqudin. Anna Borg and Maria Bartolo Galea, who are involved in training at the Employment and Training Corporation, were also instrumental in setting up the MCWO. Speaking exclusively to The Sunday Times last week, Dr Bartolo said the idea of creating a women's organisation, which, ideally, should incorporate all women's organisations in Malta, originated at a Copenhagen conference in November 2002. The conference, which Dr Bartolo attended, featured Equal, a programme which funds projects for the social inclusion of people with problems, like the disabled and ex-convicts, in the labour market. "Considering that Malta has the lowest percentage of women workers in Europe, we face a big problem. According to the Lisbon target, we should reach 60 per cent employment for women by 2010. Malta lags at 34 per cent, so we are way behind," Dr Bartolo explained. At the conference, organised by the presidency of the European Commission, there were also representatives of the European Women's Lobby (EWL), the largest women's organisation for gender equality in Europe.

  • Gender-Related Asylum Claims in Europe (2012)
    DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR INTERNAL POLICIES POLICY DEPARTMENT C: CITIZENS' RIGHTS AND CONSTITUTIONAL AFFAIRS GENDER EQUALITY Gender related asylum claims in Europe A comparative analysis of law, policies and practice focusing on women in nine EU Member States France, Belgium, Hungary, Italy, Malta, Romania, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom STUDY Abstract This research considers the law, policies and practice for gender-related asylum claims in nine EU Member States. The resulting comparative analysis demonstrates the many disparities in the way EU Member States handle such claims. The report concludes that women are not guaranteed consistent gender-sensitive treatment when they seek protection in Europe. It identifies a number of recommendations for a range of institutions in order to achieve a gender-sensitive asylum system across Europe.
