Info

Transport data has been available from Eurostat since 2000 and is reported annually in the TERM reports by the European Environment Agency. This data does not have a gender variable and there is no gender-differentiated information on, for example, car ownership or the choice of transport mode. Assessing gender aspects on EU transport, the TRANSGEN project writes in its final report that "Transport is a traditionally male-dominated sector, both from the employment point of view and for the values that are there embedded" and they argue that that is the case, while it is also widely recognised that gender-sensitive issues are very relevant to this sector as well. 4.11.4. Trends emphasised in Member States' reporting to the UNECE Not all MS discuss action taken regarding the strategic objective, women and environment. There is no consistency in the way that environment is defined or in how it is related to women and gender in reports to the UNECE. There is a lack of systematic reporting and very little reporting on what actions have actually been carried out. The reports that discuss this strategic objective give the reader an idea of how individual MS perceive environmental problems. For example, they relate to health, waste handling, rural development, etc., depending on the specific environmental conditions and problems of individual MS. The major environmental concern for Bulgaria seems to be water resources and the treatment of waste. The report states that women should be empowered to safeguard the environment but nothing is said about what action has been taken. Lithuania writes that one of the objectives of the National Program for Equal opportunities is to integrate gender-equality perspectives in environmental protection and arrange training in gender equality for officials in the Ministry of the Environment. Lithuania also recognizes the need for more information in society on environmental issues and considers women's NGOs an important part of that. In Cyprus the issue of women and environment is mainly entrusted to women's organizations and NGOs. Hungary states that environmental consciousness is not at the top of the agenda but that health improvement and food safety are considered important. 14508/09 ADD 1 PL/vk 120 ANNEX DG G EN
Some MS report on actions that have been taken in very diverse fields. Spain reports on efforts to include women and gender perspectives in rural development matters. The UK connects development and environment and work done in international development work to address the inequalities in climate change in particular. Belgium presents some statistics on the gender balance in the Department of Environment and refers to a bio monitoring project (started 1999) that screens certain environmental substances from the perspective of gender. Women are more sensitive to certain type of pollution. Sweden reports a similar strategy. The Chemicals Inspectorate is considering gender differences in the human-health risks of chemicals. Sweden also reports that gender issues are part of the strategy for sustainable development and a new project has been started with the National Board of Housing, Building and Planning with the aim of developing strategic methods in order to mainstream gender in the urban planning process. Portugal reports that a first "Study for a diagnosis and the creation of gender indicators in the area of Environment and territory" has been carried out and a "Guide for gender mainstreaming in Environment and territory – Accessibility and transportation" has been drawn up. They were undertaken in 2008 and launched in 2009. They will for the first time raise awareness on the part of public and private entities of the gender impact of this issue and of the need for gender-sensitive intervention in this area. Finland reports that women have been actively involved in developing participative and interactive working methods as part of land use act since 2000. As part of the Government Action Plan for Gender Equality 2008-2011 each Finish ministry has to establish a working group on gender equality and do a gender-impact assessment of key processes of the ministry. For example, the Ministry for Agriculture and Forestry looks at gender aspects in the National Forest Program, and the Ministry of Transport and Communications evaluates the gender aspects of the reform of public transport legislation, etc. 14508/09 ADD 1 PL/vk 121 ANNEX DG G EN
