Gender Inequality
The pandemic is exposing and exacerbating the considerable hurdles women face in achieving their rights and fulfilling their potential, said Antonio Guterres.

It’s hard to develop an inclusive and sustainable way of living when the effort being put in by half of the world’s population is being ignored blindly.
Feminism, over the years, has been twisted as a hackneyed excuse for women to trample over men. Repeatedly explaining to people the difference between misandry and feminism is not enough. The intersectional lens refutes that it is a man vs woman problem.

Gender parity is a statistical measure that compares a particular indicator among women, like average income, to the same indicator among men.
