Gender Equality in Security Forces in the Czech Republic: Opportunities and Risks
Original language description
Equality between men and women has long been one of the basic values of the Czech Republic (see the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms), yet many gender inequalities persist. In terms of the level of equality between women and men, the Czech Republic ranks well below the EU average: according to the Gender Equality Index the Czech Republic ranks 25th out of 27 EU countries, and according to the Global Gender Gap Index 2023, it is even second to last and 101st among 146 evaluated countries worldwide. The contribution is devoted to selected aspects of gender equality in the security forces. It presents the results of a pilot investigation at the Police Academy of the Czech Republic in Prague. The paper aims to find out how the issue of equality between men and women in the security forces is perceived and to identify areas in which the integration and support of women in the police and other security forces can be optimized, thus contributing to developing theory, practice, and education in the security management field and reducing gender inequalities.
