Potsdam (dpa / bb) - On International Women's Day, Brandenburg's Prime Minister Dietmar Woidke (SPD) thanked the women for their services in the corona pandemic.

You bear the brunt of the crisis and have achieved great things in recent months, as he emphasized in a statement on Sunday.

On Tuesday, the cabinet will deal with the 3rd framework program for equality policy for the state from 2020 to 2025, announced Woidke.

It is about equal opportunities for women and men, girls and boys in all areas of society and political fields.

The proportion of women in decision-making and management positions should be increased.

There is still a lot to do, said Minister of Women Ursula Nonnemacher (Greens).

Women predominantly work in systemically important but less well paid professions.

In addition, many would handle the household and homeschooling.

Equality should finally be a matter of course, she emphasized.
