Euroscola event: Rights of Women

We took part in a live event discussing the rights of Women across Europe. We were able to listen and speak to a variety of MEP’s and other schools within the EU.

We asked the question, ‘Why is there such a large gender pay gap and what are the EP doing to address this?’

We then had our question answered and learned all about legislation, the pay gap currently at 14%, and how similar jobs should be seen as equal for pay purposes as statistically women are mainly the carers and are paid less.
