"The lives of women in rural areas have changed and become more diverse over the last 50 years or so. Traditional jobs in these areas have declined in number. At the same time, new lifestyles have come along to take their place. They show marked differences as regards women’s background, education and status in the labour market. These changes also need to be reflected more in the Union’s support policy, for improved reconciliation of rural women’s working and family life.
In recent years, women have used their education and professional skills to promote the development of the traditional rural economy. Innovative rural businesses of all kinds, which focus, for example, on services and farm tourism, have significantly revived the rural economic structure. There must also be support for the establishment and development of innovative rural businesses in the future.
Finally, I would like to point out that the promotion of gender equality is one of the main objectives of the EU and the Member States. The Union’s common agricultural policy should therefore incorporate the principle of promoting equality."@en1
