Today, equality of opportunities between men and women is one of the priority objectives of the European Union. In fact, in May 2011, five years after the first European Pact for Gender Equality in 2006, the Council of the European Union, aware of the need to reaffirm and support the close relationship between the European Commission’s Strategy for the equality between women and men (2010-2015) and the Europe 2020 strategy, reaffirmed its willingness to comply with the European Union’s objectives on equality between women and men and adopted a second European Pact for Gender Equality (2011- 2020).
