Women are more educated than ever, and they are significantly present in political life, but the real picture of society is seen where decisions are made, in administration, the economy, and the sectors that shape development. It is precisely there that women are still not represented to the extent that corresponds to their knowledge, experience, and contribution, and that is something we must all work on together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The opening part of the conference also featured remarks by Andreas von Beckerath, Ambassador of the European Union to Serbia, Matilde Mordt, United Nations Resident Coordinator in Serbia, and Tatjana Macura, Minister without Portfolio in charge of gender equality, prevention of violence against women, and the economic and political empowerment of women, while the Head of the UN Women Office in Serbia, Milana Rikanovi\u0107, presented the profile of gender equality in Serbia. The conference concluded with the panel discussion \u201cExperience Drives Change,\u201d in which, alongside representatives of organizations working to improve the position of women, Luka Peri\u0107, a peer educator and member of the Youth Panel of the Commissioner for the Protection of Equality, also took part.<\/p>\n\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Equality is when a woman can register her residence in her own apartment without being asked \u201cwhether she has her husband\u2019s consent,\u201d when a career decision does not depend on whether she plans to have a family, or when caring for children or parents does not automatically mean giving up professional advancement, said the Commissioner&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":65427,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-65586","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Commissioner at the Conference Marking International Women\u2019s Day &#8226;
