Prepare a pamphlet on the importance of gender equaity
Answered by admin @
Answer:
Explanation:
Sustainable development relies on ending discrimination toward women and providing equal opportunities for education and employment. Gender equality has been conclusively shown to stimulate economic growth, which is crucial for so-called developing countries.
UN Women reported that in Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) member countries, half of the economic growth over the past 50 years is attributed to girls having better access to education, as well as increases in the number of years of schooling between girls and boys. Because of this, GVI has established projects that put an emphasis on education for girl children, as part of long-term sustainable development initiatives.
Despite progress made under the UN Millennium Development Goals (UN MDGs), in almost all countries around the world women still face barriers to the labour market. For example, the World Bank reported that as many as 2.7 billion women globally are prevented by law from working in certain jobs. In 18 countries, men can legally forbid their wives from working. On top of that, women face further obstacles such as sexual harassment, expected gender roles, and having to carry out the majority of unpaid care work and arduous chores like collecting water.
Even when women do work, the gender pay gap means they aren’t earning an equal amount. Globally, women only earn 77 cents to the dollar when compared to men.
These barriers translate to $160 trillion in lost income potential, the World Bank found. Unless women have access to empowerment opportunities, allowing them to join the workforce, countries will struggle to develop.
