In our "One question to…" section, we ask EESC members to respond to a question on a hot topic that is or should be high on the European agenda.

For the July edition, we spoke to José Antonio Moreno Diaz, EESC member and rapporteur for the opinion on Combatting violence against women. We asked him what action the EU could take to combat the epidemic of violence against women and girls, which he describes as a form of terrorism claiming thousands of victims each year.
