Europe is facing a pivotal moment. Social and economic inequalities, rapid technological change, anti-democratic forces, and geopolitical instability are straining the foundations of the European project.
The 14th edition of European Citizens’ Initiative Day – ECI Day 2026 – will take place as part of the EESC’s Civil Society Week, held from 2 to 5 March under the title People, Democracy, Resilience – Our Future!
Gender inequality remains one of the most pressing issues that our societies continue to face. The question of gender equality in the media sector is shaped by broader political, social and technological developments that influence how women participate in and are represented across media landscapes.
