lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am very happy with this document. I believe that it opens the door to more profound and structural phenomena, which relate to women in rural areas. I believe that we have so far had successes in relation to isolated aspects, projects such as Equal and many others, which represent bringing women closer, an intention to help women in rural areas. But often society does not accept or support these efforts by the European Union to help women. The Leader projects, for example, are not always led by women. It is frankly difficult to find a woman sitting at the table: the social system rejects it. What worries me in particular, however, are the structural problems. For example, the depopulation of the countryside essentially goes hand in hand with the abandonment of women, because women have no place in the rural environment, their requirements are not socially recognised, they can neither exercise their rights nor develop themselves as individuals. Studies have been done, in the University of Cantabria for example, which demonstrate that practically 99% of women with university qualifications do not wish to return to the countryside. We must incentivise transversal policies for helping women. For example, with regard to accessibility of services, we must support the policy of subsidised transport, because women in the countryside often live far from any opportunity, far from medical service, and their children are far away from education since school transport has been removed. Amongst the transversal support policies we should promote access to IT systems and bring the wealth of the urban system closer to the countryside. Similarly, I believe we should study the harm that will be done through the delocalised policy, because clearly, not only are women going to end up without work, as in the case of the milk crisis, for example, and many other agriculture crises, but also their moveable and immoveable assets – particularly the former – will no longer be in the market. Furthermore, reforestation is all very well, but we should bear in mind that these people go to the city without any assets, which have been the inheritance upon which they have supported the development of their enterprise."@en1
