Speaker 1

Good afternoon, everyone. We can start our important work in the afternoon, and we move to the item 10 of our agenda.

We have now the exchange of views on gender equality in Horizon Europe 21-27 and perspectives for the future with Joanna Drake, Deputy Director-General, Directorate-General for Research and Innovation, European Commission. I would like to thank you, Ms Drake, for being with us today for an exchange of views on gender equality in this week. Our exchange of views is taking place in the context of the European Parliament Gender Equality Week. We will start with a short video message from the President prepared for this occasion. We have approximately 1 hour for this discussion, which will be held in the catch-the-eye format.

I invite all members who wanted to take the floor to put their name plates vertically in their holder. I remind everyone to please stick to their time. And now, I would like to play the video from the President, please.

06:43 - 07:02

Speaker 2

Europe moves forward when people decide to step up and take the lead. As President, I see this in action every day. I have met incredible women leaders throughout our society and across our continent who are blazing trails, building success stories, and changing our societies.
