Evidence snapshot for Spain
Spain has implemented several evidence-based reforms demonstrating progress on gender equality and social inclusion. Spain's Equal Non-Transferable Paternity Leave Reform (2017–2021) extended fully paid paternity leave from 2 to 16 weeks, increasing father uptake by roughly 20 percentage points, with 75% of fathers now taking leave simultaneously at birth. Spain's Organic Law 1/2004 established 106 specialised gender-violence courts that have handled 2 million complaints and secured 700,000 convictions over 15 years. In digital accessibility and rural connectivity, EVA Facial Mouse has achieved 20,000+ Google Play ratings averaging 8.7/10, while guifi.net has built a community-owned network of over 37,000 active nodes serving rural Catalonia since 2004.
