A successful comprehensive information and awareness-raising campaign by the Greek General Secretariat for Gender Equality on the FEMM report on women’s economic empowerment
The General Secretariat for Gender Equality (GSGE), i.e. the governmental organization in charge of equality between women and men in Greece, has widely publicized in our country the recent FEMM report on women’s economic empowerment in the private and public sectors in the EU (European Parliament, Plenary Sitting, Strasbourg, September 2017): http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?pubRef=-//EP//NONSGML+REPORT+A8-2017-0271+0+DOC+PDF+V0//EN .
First of all, a very comprehensive report in Greek and a concrete summary in English have already been uploaded on our website and our page in the social media:
