Dear Madam,
Dear Sir, 
 
At its 534th plenary session, held on 18 and 19 April 2018, the European Economic and Social Committee adopted the following opinion, available in all language versions:
 
The EESC welcomes the efforts made by the EC to address the persistent pay gap between men and women by proposing an Action Plan with eight areas for action, but finds that each area should be further developed. It is important to look at the stereotypes that affect career choices, as well as to the underlying causes of labour market segregation, in order to counter them. It agrees with the EC proposal for pay transparency and pay audits to be introduced in order to facilitate the collection of individualised data and develop appropriate action plans at sector and business level. Moreover, it welcomes the EC recognition of the crucial role social partners play in this, while also highlighting the contribution of civil society organisations. Finally, it insists on the need to obtain additional resources, as part of the Multiannual Financial Framework, to implement the Action Plan, including the financing of childcare facilities and long-term care services..
 
Yours sincerely,

Chère Madame,
Cher Monsieur,
 
Lors de sa 534e session plénière des 18 et 19 avril 2018, le Comité économique et social européen a adopté l'avis suivant, disponible dans toutes les versions linguistiques:
 
 
Le CESE se félicite des efforts déployés par la CE pour remédier à l'écart salarial persistant entre les hommes et les femmes en proposant un plan d'action comportant huit domaines d'action, mais estime que chaque domaine devrait être davantage développé. Il est important d'examiner les stéréotypes qui affectent les choix de carrière, ainsi que les causes sous-jacentes de la ségrégation sur le marché du travail, afin de les contrer. Il est d'accord avec la proposition de la CE en matière de transparence des rémunérations et d'audits des rémunérations qui doit être introduite afin de faciliter la collecte de données individualisées et de développer des plans d'action appropriés au niveau sectoriel et des entreprises. En outre, il se félicite que la CE reconnaisse le rôle crucial que jouent les partenaires sociaux dans ce domaine, tout en soulignant la contribution des organisations de la société civile. Enfin, il insiste sur la nécessité d'obtenir des ressources supplémentaires, dans le cadre du cadre financier pluriannuel, pour la mise en œuvre du plan d'action, y compris le financement des structures d'accueil des enfants et des services de soins de longue durée.

Cultural Diplomacy in the Commonwealth 2018 »

"Cultural Diplomacy as a Means to Build Bridges
between the Commonwealth & the World"

London; April 16th - 20th, 2018

Conference Overview

The Commonwealth is an intergovernmental organization of 53 member states, which covers almost a quarter of the world's entire land area and serves as an influential regional player in global political, economic and cultural affairs. The Commonwealth has a rich and diverse experience of best practices in cultural diplomacy and for this reason serves as a good organization in which to hold an International Symposium. In addition, the Commonwealth constitutes a global community where all members have an equal voice regardless of their size and population. Such a community, with its shared values and history, is the ideal forum for fostering mutual understanding and cooperation through cultural exchange and open dialogue. 

The Academy for Cultural Diplomacy has therefore created the conference in order to build on this past experience and to formulate new initiatives, which will strengthen international relations and encourage cooperation between diverse communities based upon values of peace, democracy, human rights and the rule of law within the Commonwealth of Nations. 
The event will address issues related to cultural diplomacy in the region, and look for methods by which cultural bridges and dialogue can be improved between the Commonwealth and the rest of the world.

Conference Locations

The Symposium is based in a number of important political, historic, and cultural locations across London such as House of Lords.

Conference Participants »

Participation in the conference is open to governmental & diplomatic officials, academics, artists, journalists, civil society practitioners, private sector representatives, young professionals and students as well as other interested individuals from across the world.
Certificate of Attendance - All conference participants will be awarded an official certificate of attendance upon completion of the program, which will provide details of the speakers who took part and the topics discussed.
