Italy is 21st in the world for the
inclusion of women and children according to the WeWorld Index
presented in Rome Wednesday.
Italy is last among the EU's founding nations for inclusion
of women and children and is far off the Agenda 2030 goals, the
index said, noting that Italy's position was virtually unchanged
over the past three years.
The WeWorld Index is drawn up by the Milan-based NGO WeWorld.
WeWorld (former Intervita) is an Italian-based independent,
non-sectarian and nonpartisan organization operating in
developing countries with the aim of improving the living
conditions of populations in the poorest areas.
WeWorld cooperates in the realization of long-term
development Projects in Africa, Asia and South America.
