Full Force Ahead for Women's Rights!
Equal rights should be a given, but globally we are moving backwards. It is time to change that together. Help us move forward - full force ahead for women's rights!
Every ten minutes, somewhere in the world, a woman or girl is killed. It will take at least another 40 years before women are equally represented in politics. Worldwide, 1.1 billion women still do not have the same rights as men. And no country has yet achieved full gender equality. Not even the Netherlands.
In Europe, more and more young people believe that women belong in the home and should obey their husbands. Activists fighting for equal rights face intimidation, violence and oppressive laws. Autocratic countries, repressive regimes and ultra-conservative groups spread hatred and false information deliberately about women's rights and gender equality.

Starting in October, you will find a media kit here to help spread the message online and make an appeal to the future cabinet.
Future cabinet: protect and commit to women's rights and gender equality!

12 different themes. At a time of growing opposition to women's rights, gender equality and democratic values worldwide, this agenda is more relevant than ever.
