FRA - Promoting and protecting your fundamental rights across the EU

A third of women in the EU have experienced violence at home, at work or in public. Young women report having experienced higher levels of sexual harassment at work and other forms of violence than older women. Yet violence against women often remains invisible as only every fourth woman reports incidents to the authorities (the police, or social, health or support services). These are some of the findings of the EU survey on gender-based violence conducted from 2020 to 2024 by Eurostat (the statistical office of the EU), the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) and the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE).

On 13 December, FRA’s Management Board re-elected Jim Clarken as the new Chairperson for a second term starting on 19 March 2025.

A new online information platform from the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) aims to raise awareness about the fundamental rights safeguards and implications of the EU’s IT systems for migration and policing and their interoperability.
