As the president of the Brussels Binder, Dr Audrey-Flore Ngomsik was interviewed by the MEP assistant.
🔴"The European Union is trying to become a global leader in gender equality. But shouldn’t its institutions look inward, into their own functioning and at women's representation to ensure the implementation of egalitarian policies?"
🟢The Brussels Binder did, and has implemented change. Its strategy, its volunteers, its initiatives...
⚠️ And gender is not enough! #Equality means to go beyond gender, this is why one of the core values of the Brussels Binder is #intersectionality.

The answer is 🅱🅸🅰🆂🅴🆂, this is why 🅴🅳🆄🅲🅰🆃🅸🅾🅽 is so important!
To be able to debate, to see every angle, to be able to draft inclusive policies you need to have a broader diversity of expertise on a problem.
This is the only way to vote laws that include everyone.
To conclude, #intersectionality is not about individuality.
It is about having #systemicchange in life, #workplace, #studies.
It is about having #systemichange in a place that privilege only one type of person.
