17 November 2023
Today we are in Paris with our international partners from the EnEnWomen project: Encouraging Women Participation in Times of Pandemic, part of the European CERV (Citizenship, Equality, Rights and Values) programme.
We began with a visit to the Panthéon in Paris, where Jean Monnet is buried, but above all to visit the tombs of illustrious French women such as Marie Curie, Germaine Tillion and Simone Veil (winner of the Charles V Prize from the Yuste Foundation), as a symbol of the legacy that French women have contributed to the history of France and Europe.
The rest of the day was devoted to :
- the sharing of information on the women who could join the European Pantheon by each partner country
- a presentation by Monica Radu on the situation of women in France following the pandemic and women's shelters
