The European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) is an autonomous body of the European Union, established to contribute to and strengthen the promotion of gender equality, including gender mainstreaming in all EU policies and the resulting national policies, and the fight against discrimination based on sex, as well as to raise EU citizens’ awareness of gender equality. The seat of the European Institute for Gender Equality is in Vilnius (Lithuania). It was officially launched in June 2010. Environment is a cross-cutting issue. Environmental change and climate change are increasingly caused by developments taking place at the global level, including those relating to demographics, patterns of production and trade, and rapid technological progress. Gender is considered particularly relevant in climate protection policies. |
