| Annotation | Almost every fifth person in Europe is a woman aged 50 and over, so that political debate is destined to be more strongly influenced by the concerns of older women than has hitherto been the case. Speeches and workshops at this conference considered women's empowerment and participation with regard to their interest in politics. A paper on work conducted in Germany, Austria and France for the project, "Equal Opportunities for Women: Exchanging Information and Experience over the Internet" (www.sophia-net.org) suggests that, despite legislation and other advances, equal opportunities for women are anything but widespread.
