Petition is addressed to: European Commission
The EU- networks based in Brussels cover many sectors - from rights of persons with disabilities and women's rights to recycling, green energy and culture. All networks are established in a similar way- membership based structures from European countries are united through their political priorities and work actively for their agendas. The EU-networks are trusted partners of the European Parliament, European commission and the UN. Often the EC discusses and takes in consideration the opinion of the leaders of those networks and gives space for their recommendations while shaping and implementing political decisions towards the member states. In order for those networks to have a meaningful political impact for all EU-citizens they must be representative of ALL European citizens but is that the case?
We urge all European networks to:
- establish fair working conditions for all their employees;
- embrace ethical practices of wellbeing, inclusion and work-life balance;
- ensure equal representation both in staff and boards taking in consideration all different EU-member state citizens.
We urge the European Commission as the key partner of all EU -umbrella networks and as their core-funding source to monitor and safeguard these principles continuously.
Reason
The EU-networks are trusted partners of the European Parliament, European commission and the UN. Often the EC discusses and takes in consideration the opinion of the leaders of those networks and gives space for their recommendations while shaping and implementing political decisions towards the member states.

Why people sign
I believe there is inequality in the pay based on gender and nationality across the EU countries. I think that it is high time we stop this.
Равенството не трябва да е само пожелателно, а задължително.
Because i want to believe on our equal rights in the EU but there are far too many cases and examples of the contrary - based on gender, origin, ethnicity, etc.
I am working in an international company with people with different citizenship and culture. I can see sometimes how me and my colleagues can be disrespected because we are women and I don't like that.
