"the EU parliament: Many victims of sexual harassment do not dare to notify"

"This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against."

"the DEBATE. Gender equality is a fundamental EU values. Still lagging the EU-parliament after the when it comes to the work for gender equality within their own walls. It is very alarming given the upcoming EUROPEAN elections."

"the EUROPEAN parliament will be a worthy representative and role model for EU citizens – a voice of the people. Therefore, it has been extra disappointing to take part in the many testimonials on sexual harassment within its walls that have come up to the surface in the aftermath metoo-petition. "

"the Stories shows with frightening clarity that the stale structures and obnoxious women alive."

"the EU parliament is still a patriarchal and hierarchical organization. Many who become victims of sexual harassment do not dare to register for fear of losing the job. As it looks now, the EUROPEAN parliament is simply not a particularly good role model."

"Without real equality, we do not reach the objectives of growth, employment and social cohesion"

"Equality is not a ”women's issue”. It is a fundamental right and one of the EU's common values. Without real equality, we do not reach the objectives of growth, employment and social cohesion. Despite this, many decision-makers with relevant knowledge on gender equality, or underestimate the importance of it. "

"the Work for real equality is not something that you can do now and then, when it suits. It should permeate the whole of the EU-parliament's activities. From the appointment of the management and key assignments to the concrete outcome of the policy."

"Of the week hammered EUROPEAN parliament a report on how to increase gender equality in the parliament. It is a success that most of the parliament's committee finally has adopted action plans for gender mainstreaming. "

"gender Mainstreaming is to achieve gender equality and combat discrimination by taking in the perspective of gender in all strategies, regulatory measures and spending programmes, at all levels and in all stages. "

"Gender provides the key tool to take into account all the various conditions, circumstances, and needs."

"There is a significant risk that the plans will be shelf warmers that you can just ignore the"

"the Undersigned was responsible for the drafting of the first plan in the environment committee. However different the various committees ' plans from each other and it is far from all of the committees who take their own plans seriously. "

"There is a significant risk that the plans will be shelf warmers that you can just ignore it. There is a need for genuine gender equality plan for the whole of parliament – a holistic approach. In the plan it should, of course, are powerful statements about how parliament should discourage sexual harassment and to act if such cases, in spite of everything occurs."

"Soon, Europe is to the choice. It is worrying that the work for gender equality is so slow in the EUROPEAN parliament and of the EU system. In the last EUROPEAN elections was 37 per cent of the newly elected meps are women. A slight improvement compared with previous elections, but the figure is still too low. "

"for the elections in may spanning the patriarchal and nationalist parties of the muscles. May the forces of influence in the EU parliament teaches gender equality both within the EU institutions and throughout Europe in a proper blow. "

"We are green, progressive, feminists want to stand up against these forces and relegate unkenheten to history's rubbish heap where it belongs."

"I'm ready to take the fight."
