Gender mainstreaming in education

Over the last century, significant progress has been made in terms of gender equality in Europe. Great disparities persist in our societies, however, between girls and boys, women and men, preventing the full enjoyment of the fundamental human right for all to participate fully, as equal partners, in all aspects of life. The Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe is convinced that the most effective way to promote gender equality is through education. This is why it adopted Recommendation CM/Rec(2007)13 on gender mainstreaming in education, in 2007. This recommendation encourages the governments of member states to incorporate the gender perspective at all levels of the educational system - through legislation and in practice - so as to promote among young people the values of justice and participation necessary for the building of a society which guarantees true gender equality, both in the private and the public spheres.--Publisher's description.
