Close the gender pay gab
This Friday morning I began working on a feature story here in the middle of the European Union in Brussels.
The pictures here was not a part of the feature story, but somehow became an another story. It was taken at Round Point Schuman next to the European Commission headquarters building Berlaymont. The commission uses the part of the building facing towards the Round Point Schuman for promoting their different campaigns. In the case a campaign for equal pay for the genders.

The old man with the harmonica was playing music for bypassers in the hope of earning some money. I am not sure he understood what was written on the banner or if he where just polite, but he did smile when I pointed at him and then the banner.
