Gender Equality
Gender equality is not just a human right but a crucial cornerstone for building a harmonious, thriving, and sustainable society. While sex is determined at birth, gender roles are shaped by societal norms and expectations. Unfortunately, women often face discrimination and unequal treatment across various facets of life.
Although there have been strides towards gender equality in certain areas such as education, disparities persist, particularly concerning nutrition, healthcare, education, and employment opportunities for girls and women. This discrimination often begins even before birth through practices like sex-selective abortion and continues through various forms of bias and violence throughout their lives, including sexual violence.
Empowering women with equal rights, education, and skills can catalyze the development of a nation and contribute to happier families and substantial economic growth. Men also play a vital role in fostering gender equality by becoming equal partners with their spouses, thereby promoting mutual respect and shared responsibilities within families and society.
