\u201cThe social and technological development of 21st century Europe means that both the challenges themselves and our understanding of how to meet them are developing fast,\u201d remarked Council of Europe Secretary General Marija Pej\u010dinovi\u0107 Buri\u0107 ahead of the conference. \u201cOnly by working together can we hope to make gender equality the reality that we long for, in the interests of all Europeans.\u201d<\/p>\n
