Webinar: Will the European Green Deal and the EU recovery fund benefit women?
Channel: Green European Foundation
Date: 2021-08-17

This webinar examines whether and how the EGD and Recovery Fund will benefit women, and what can be done to push for better. Just like the COVID-19 pandemic, the climate crisis is set to disproportionately affect women and other already marginalised groups. This makes it even more important to ensure that gendered policy perspectives – especially in times of crisis – are prominently present.

Speakers:

-Alexandra Geese – German MEP (Greens/EFA), initiator of the Gender Impact Assessment NextGeneration EU report, supporter of the #halfofit campaign

-Urszula Zielińska – Polish Green MP

-Dr. Ewa Rumińska-Zimny – Economist at the SGH Warsaw School of Economics, associated with the Congress of Women and expert of gender budgeting.
