Abstract: The European Institute for Gender Equality developed a specific index for measuring how equal women and men are in the EU countries, including in their analysis six core domains. In this present article we want to bring to attention the gender gaps in the EU countries, which represent the difference in the levels of achievement between women and men. We also want to highlight the ranking for different aspects aimed at gender equality and investigate the available solutions to promote women activities for the general progress.
