The PES encourages its activists and member parties to support the European Women’s Lobby 50/50 campaign for more women at the top of European politics www.5050democracy.eu

 Zita Gurmai, President of PES Women and great supporter of the European Women’s Lobby campaign, said: “It gives me great pleasure to support the European Women’s Lobby 50/50 campaign. We need more women at every level of European politics, including at the top. It has been a disgrace to see how few women were ever mentioned in all that talk about people supposedly in the frame for top EU jobs. I think it made people realize that something needed to be done to promote the involvement of women. The EU is not a men’s club.”
