The European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training ( CEDEFOP) assists the Cominissionof the European Communities in the developMent of initial and. con tinuing vocational training. It also acts as a European forum. for institutions and ex- perts' concerned with vocational training, enabling them ,,to exchang / ideas and ex; perience and hwnonize conceptual and practical initiatives. Since commencing its operational activities in 1976, vocational guidance and training of girls and women has been, a.priority area In accordance with the line Of action ailopted by the Commission and the views expressed by the. social partners, the Centre organized a conference in September 1977 on the subject of ,,Equal Opportunities and .Vocational training". The participants frs,rn all the MeMber States'of the European Commufth,y expressed concern at the decline in the number of women in employment and i.equested that CEDEFOP should develop an action prOgramme designed to en- sure that the estr.blished 'legal principle of equal opportunities for men and women in employment are observed in practice. - - In pursuance of this aim, the Cen'tre conducted a docuinentary survey on pilot projects financed by the European Social Fund and -im lemented in the individual Member States. In this initial phase, attention focused the co on and dotumentaion of information on traini g programmes designed to achieveGreateroccupational choice and grant access those- jobs and trades in which women -are traditionally ,under- rep resen ted. ,. In 1980, the Centre published the results of this survey.

  • Human Rights of Women Wearing the Veil in Western Europe
    Human Rights of Women Wearing the Veil in Western Europe Research Paper I. Introduction The present paper analyses legislation, policies, and case-law surrounding religious attire in a number of countries in Western Europe and how they affect the human rights of women and girls who wear the veil in Western Europe. It also more broadly analyses discrimination and violence experienced by women wearing the veil in Europe learning from their own voice. Throughout the paper, the terminology ‘veil’ is used to refer to a variety of religious attire worn mostly, but not exclusively, by Muslim women. There are different types of clothing that cover the body. This research is focused on manifestations of veils that are the subject of regulation in several Western European Countries. They include the hijab (a piece of clothing that covers the head and neck, but not the face), niqab (a piece of clothing that covers the face, where only the eyes are visible), burqa (a piece of clothing that covers both the face and eyes), jilbab (a loose piece of clothing that covers the body from head to toe), or abaya, kaftan, kebaya (a loose, often black, full body cover overcoat). The head and body covers are often combined. In several countries, some of these clothing are based on traditional costumes rather than religion and are often worn by rural communities in the countries of origins. The paper also uses the terminology ‘full-face veil’ or ‘face-covering veil’ to refer to both niqab and burqa. Furthermore, it refers to burkini, a swimsuit that covers the body from head to ankles, completed by a dress.

  • Learning from Women's Movements to Develop Intersectional Policy
    Policy Briefs 2019 Moana Genevey Learning from women’s movements to develop intersectional policy-making and inclusive policies: the Belgian Women’s Strike Supported by Table Of Contents 3 Executive summary 4 Introduction 5 Case study: the Belgian Women’s Strike 5 A movement promoting intersectional claims 6 A movement based on an intersectional functioning 7 Problem description 9 Conclusion and policy recommendations 10 References Learning from women’s movements to develop intersectional policy-making and inclusive policies: the Belgian Women’s Strike Moana Genevey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This policy brief aims to explore ways to operationalise the concept of intersectionality in poli- cy-making in Europe. It takes into consideration the lessons brought by women’s movements in the world, and in particular in Belgium. The Belgian Women’s Strike drafted a set of policy claims which focuses on the needs and experience of the most vulnerable and marginalised women in Belgium. This recent movement also developed an intersectional approach to organise the strike, with dedicated mecha- nisms tasked to ensure the operationalisation of intersectionality in all its activities. While there is an increased attention given by policy-makers to the concept of intersectionality, they still face structural barriers to put it into practice. The scarcity of disaggregated data, insufficient participation of marginalised people in policy-making and the absence of effective mechanisms to operationalise intersectionality are strong obstacles to achieve intersectionality in policy-making. The recommendation for policy-makers are centered first on increasing the visibility of margin- alised people, through data collection and the use of inclusive language.

  • Discrimination Against Women and Young Girls in the Health Sector In
    Discrimination Against Women and Young Girls in the Health Sector In August 2006 a survey was sent by the European Institute of Women’s Health to a series of expert advisors in eight European countries requesting information for a report to the European Parliament on the topic of “Discrimination Against Women and Girls in the Health Sector”. The questions were as follows: 1. How would you describe the state of women’s health in your country? 2. Are there any specific health policies for women? 3. Are health policies that are supposed to affect both women and men, designed differently for men and women? 4. Choose three issues from the list and describe how they apply to women in your country: • Cancer • Drug abuse • Sexually transmitted • Reproductive health infections • Eating disorders • Alcohol • Osteoporosis • Smoking 5. Are there any healthcare policies specifically for young girls? 6. Have you an example of ‘best practice’ in women’s health in your country? 7. Can you tell us anything more about how gender influences patterns of health in your country? As specified in the tender, the countries for this study were Belgium, Bulgaria Germany, Greece, Poland, Portugal, Sweden and the United Kingdom (UK). We include a short summary for each of these countries followed by the information received from each country expert. 1 Belgium Belgium is a diverse mix of local governments, languages and population groups. Because of this diversified system, national data are not always available for review. Much of the readily available data was some years out of date and material was difficult to compare.
