Since its creation, the European Union (EU) has been taking steps towards prevention of gender discrimination and greater gender equality. Despite all efforts, remarkable inequalities and gender gaps persist throughout the Union.

Even though European women account for majority of all university graduates, they only represent about twenty percent of decision-makers in state and private institutions including governments, universities, scientific institutions and private companies. The Czech Republic lags behind most states with one of the lowest percentage of female representation in state and private decision-making organs as well as one of the biggest European pay gaps.
