"The inequality between women and men occupying the highest decision-making positions in bodies that create and manage the economy is enormous. This fact calls into question the legitimacy of today’s democratically-based decision-making bodies. I would say that at the present time, full of economic uncertainty, deepening climate change and collapsing ecosystems, access for women to world markets should be facilitated. One thing is indisputable. The approach of women to the pressing problems of today is diametrically opposite to the ‘masculine’ way of dealing with stalemates. Women are more inclined towards economical and efficient decisions. I often see how the role of women in the home, workplace and community is undervalued. Women always think first of the needs of their children and families, securing health care, education … On the other hand, they favour greater political stability and strongly oppose armed conflict. Let us therefore also exploit the potential of women in the green economy. A balanced approach to both sexes will bring alternative and innovative perspectives to the future. Growing demand for professional workers, however, also requires the appropriate training. Let us therefore give women and female students the same opportunities of access to education and training. I believe that only in this way will it be possible to make progress in research, sustainable development, and environmentally viable solutions to the present crises."@en1
