Gender Equality Around The World

Instructor Image Kathryn Longstaff
1 Lesson
Description

Introduction:

Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.

There has been progress over the last decades: More girls are going to school, fewer girls are forced into early marriage, more women are serving in parliament and positions of leadership, and laws are being reformed to advance gender equality.

Despite these gains, many challenges remain: discriminatory laws and social norms remain pervasive, women continue to be underrepresented at all levels of political leadership, and 1 in 5 women and girls between the ages of 15 and 49 report experiencing physical or sexual violence by an intimate partner within a 12-month period.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could reverse the limited progress that has been made on gender equality and women’s rights. The coronavirus outbreak exacerbates existing inequalities for women and girls across every sphere – from health and the economy, to security and social protection.

Key learning objectives:

To identify how gender inequality impacts women.
To explain the importance of Sustainable Development Goal 5 and its impact on the success of all other Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
To consider how the global pandemic has affected the progress of achieving SDG Goal 5 by 2030.
