lpv:translated text	". Gender equality is a fundamental principle of the EU, but inequalities remain in terms of entrepreneurship or decision-making power in most European states. According to the statistics, the number of women entrepreneurs is considerably lower than that of men, at a rate of around 30%. Given the major contribution made by small and medium-sized enterprises to economic development, it is important to encourage investment readiness among women, already while they are at school. At the same time, we must fight to get rid of the gender stereotypes which persist from one generation to another. I think that it would also be useful to have an exchange of good practices between more economically developed and poorer regions in the EU, including through Erasmus-type programmes for young entrepreneurs. In this same context, I believe that better use must be made of the funding opportunities available to women entrepreneurs, such as the European Progress Microfinance Facility. Last but not least, specific attention must be focused on providing childcare facilities to allow women to continue their career soon after having their children."@en1
