50/50 Campaign #Women for Europe – #Europe for Women

The 50/50 Campaign #Women for Europe – #Europe for Women is a civil-society campaign launched on 7 June 2018 in Brussels at the Women's Forum, promoted by the European Women's Lobby (EWL), a coalition bringing together more than 2,000 organisations across the 28 EU member states, 3 accession countries and 18 European associations. In Portugal it was carried out by the Portuguese Platform for Women's Rights (PpDM), the EWL's national coordination.

The campaign aims to guarantee gender parity at all levels of European decision-making (#Women for Europe) and to promote equality between women and men in EU policies and actions (#Europe for Women), built on a five-pillar manifesto covering political decision-making, economic independence, freedom from violence, peace/human security/dignity, and resourcing for women's human rights.

National coordinations adapted the campaign to raise political parties' awareness of its objectives and to inform women voters ahead of the 2019 European Elections. PpDM carried out several actions in Portugal aimed at political parties participating in those elections.
