"Mr President, I asked to speak because I would like to say personally that I agree that the relationship between women and climate change is a specific one. However, I also agree with Ms Klass, who said we should not get lost in the details, but must identify the important priorities, the important issues.
For me, education is particularly important. There is a saying – when you educate a man, you educate an individual, when you educate a woman, you educate a whole family. Education is therefore very significant. Then comes awareness, because women can influence patterns of behaviour. The third thing I think is very important is that women are more commonly, much more commonly, the victims of natural disasters and we should give this greater consideration when we discuss EU development aid.
Finally, allow me to mention one more very significant problem, which is the representation of women in decision-making bodies. Personally, I also support all efforts and proposals that would increase women's participation in decision-making bodies in general."@en1
