European Trade Union Committee for Education

Following up on the 2010-2015 Action Programme on Gender Equality, the European Trade Union Federation (ETUC) recently announced a new action programme for the period 2016-2019. The Action Programme “sets the priorities on equality between women and men of ETUC members at both European and national level” and addresses five specific action areas that are linked to one another.

Affiliated to the ETUC, the European Trade Union Committee for Education (ETUCE), contributed to the content of the Action Programme and wishes to highlight the influence education trade unions can have by continuing their work and renewing their efforts in tackling gender inequalities and stereotypes that still persist in the education sector.
