"Gender-based violence does not stop with a certain age. Yet, gender-based violence against older women remains largely invisible and overlooked in policymaking"

"Let's not forget older women. Let's call on the European Commission to create an ambitious Gender Equality Strategy 2026-2030 that combats gender-based violence against ALL women."

EU Anti-Poverty Strategy Coalition

Working across different sectors united by one goal: A strong, ambitious, and coordinated EU Anti-Poverty Strategy

We Work to:

- Push for a comprehensive EU Anti-Poverty Strategy
- Ensure anti-poverty goals are mainstreamed across all EU policies
- Connect poverty with issued like migration, climate, digitalisation, and security
- Hold the EU accountable through meetings, joint statements, and work with key allies in the Parliament and Commission

Poverty affects 95+ Million People in the EU. But it's still addressed in silos, fragmenting responses and delaying solutions.

The coalition is building bridges across sectors and pushing for rights-based, intersectional answers to poverty
