The fifth edition of the European Gender Equality Week took place from 9 to 13 December 2024, encompassing events organised by different Parliament’s bodies, including committees and delegations, addressing gender equality issues within their areas of competence.

At the initiative of the Committee on Women's Rights and Gender Equality, the European Parliament held for the first time European Gender Equality Week in October 2020 and with the initiative being a big success, since then the European Parliament organises Gender Equality Week events annually. Through the years, it became an all-inclusive initiative, joined also by a big number of external stakeholders.
