The Project<\/strong><\/p>\n

20 April 2021 – In March 2019, the Council of Europe\u2019s Committee of Ministers adopted the Recommendation CM\/Rec(2019)1 on Preventing and Combating Sexism<\/a>. It is a comprehensive catalogue of measures both to prevent and to condemn sexism, calling for specific action in specific areas: language and communications; internet and social media; media, advertising and other communication methods; workplace, public sector; justice sector, education institutions, culture and sport; and the private sphere.<\/p>\n

The European Women\u2019s Lobby (EWL) has over the years taken the position that sexism reinforced by gender stereotypes is one of the factors that runs counter to achieving gender equality and the full recognition of women\u2019s rights. Despite the progress achieved in recent years, there is not a single country in the world where women are not exposed to the threat or reality of acts of male violence in every single area of their lives.<\/p>\n

To raise awareness on sexism and begin the discussion on how to combat all forms of sexism in key sectors nine EWL members, the national coordinations from Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Ireland, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, and Spain, collaborated in the project \u201cMobilise Against Sexism\u201d.<\/p>\n

Over the past months, and in spite of limited movements due to COVID-19, EWL members in the nine countries have been actively implementing activities in the target sectors. We met with national decision-makers, gathered with key actors such as local members, women\u2019s organisations, civil society organisations, academics, lawyers, journalists and young feminists, organised webinars promoting the CoE\u2019s campaign on Sexism: See It. Name It. Stop It., and ran social media and communication campaigns.<\/p>\n

We worked on encouraging countries to pass this crucial legislation that condemns sexism and criminalises sexist hate speech. We also called for countries to monitor the implementation of anti-sexist policies at national level and report back periodically to the Council of Europe.<\/p>\n

To learn about what has been achieved so far, read the highlights from each of nine countries that have participated in the project. You can find their stories in this section.<\/p>\n
