Inhalt: "This Communication sets out the Commission's ideas towards a strategy on gender equality over the next five years. Its purpose is to establish a framework for action within which all Community activities can contribute to attain the goal of eliminating inequalities and promoting equality between women and men, as set out in Article 3(2) of the Treaty. In order to prepare this Communication, the Commission analysed the following key aspects of policy at Community level in this area over the past years: the legislative 'acquis' in the area of equal opportunities and the relevant case-law of the European Court of Justice; the Community commitment and follow-up to the Platform for Action adopted at the Fourth UN World Conference on Women in Beijing in 1995; the implementation of the past Community programmes on equal opportunities for women and men and, in particular, of the medium-term Community action programme (1996-2000), which reinforced the gender mainstreaming strategy; the Structural Funds' contribution to gender equality over the last ten years through specific actions, in particular the NOW initiative, and the new regulations (2000-2006), as well as the valuable contribution of the European Employment Strategy since 1997; the initiatives in the field of external relations, development cooperation policies as well as the promotion and protection of the human rights of women; the fresh impulses provided by the European Parliament and the Council; the strengthened provisions of the Amsterdam Treaty on equality between women and men."
