lpv:translated text	"A set of data published by Eurostat in connection with International Women’s Day highlights the fact that in the European Union, women are much more vulnerable to the risk of poverty and social exclusion than men, and the most severe cases of this are encountered in Romania and Bulgaria. Mothers, especially single mothers, elderly women and women in rural areas are the main victims of the effects of the economic and financial crisis. The representation of women in the political decision-making process has not shown any linear improvement in recent years and in certain Member States, the number of women in national parliaments does not exceed 15%. Women are noticeably under-represented in political positions across the whole European Union, and the lack of parity is prevalent in every sector of activity. The active involvement of women is an economic necessity in the current climate. This is why it is vital to create mechanisms for implementing gender policies aimed at achieving parity with regard to involvement in the political decision-making process, thereby ensuring that these measures are effective."@en1
