"Madam President, last year, in the European Union, the number of women over the age of 65 was 38% higher than that of men. Therefore, at European Union level, the number of women exposed to the risk of poverty and social exclusion is higher than that of men.
According to Eurostat, in 2010 the employment rate among women aged between 25 and 64 was only 43.3% among those with a low level of education, 66.6% among those with an average level education, and 80.6% among women with a high level of education. Although 60% of higher education graduates are women, they are not represented at the same level in politics or in business management positions. We believe that setting a goal of equal representation in elected positions in the national parliaments and the European Parliament and of 40% by 2020 in the management positions of major European companies will encourage women to develop and plan for adequate careers."@en1
