I joined @eige_eu @EURightsAgency & @EU_Eurostat’s event on the release of new data on gender-based violence.
This research helps us make informed policies and focus attention where needed. Together, we can build a safer Europe for women & girls

We have a problem with hatred in the 🇪🇺. It is toxic, it polarises our society, and it leaves us in fear. Closing the 12th meeting of the High Level Group on combating #hatespeech and #hatecrime today, I called for more openness and more tolerance.

Today we mark #IDAHOT2024.
We must create societies where everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity or sex characteristics can reach their full potential without fear of violence or discrimination.

Hatred against Jewish and Muslim communities is a reality.
Our message is clear: No room for hate in our society. We stand united against all forms of hatred and denigration.

In the past weeks, Europe has seen a rise in antisemitic incidents at a level reminiscent of some of the darkest moments in our history.
Hate has no place in the European
Union.
Never again is now.
We at the @EU_Commission take a clear stand: europa.eu/!CkpgKy

Thanks to interpreters, President @vonderleyen's #SOTEU speech was also accessible in International Sign language.
Accessibility is a precondition for equal participation of persons with disabilities.

Women and girls must be able to live free from fear, violence, and everyday insecurity.
Today is a historic day in our path towards building a true #UnionOfEquality free from violence against women and girls.

I participated to a #G7 Gender Equality dialogue on “Leveraging the Lessons learned from the pandemic”. Our Work-Life Balance Directive and our #CareStrategy are EU policy tools to empower women in the labour market.
