Blog# 11. Gender Inequality

Equality between women and men or gender equality include promoting the equal participation of women and men in making decisions, supporting women and girls so that they can fully exercise their rights, reducing the gap between women's and men's access to and control of resources and the benefits of development. Gender equality is still out of reach for most women worldwide. Women continue to have fewer rights, lower education and health status, less income, and less access to resources and decision-making than men. Nevertheless, women's critical roles in food production, income generation, management of natural resources, community organization and domestic responsibilities are essential for sustainable development. Gender inequality has made the women role insignificant because it shows that women can’t rights that men can have. Even thought there has been changes worldwide for women have rights, in third world countries, the women are still degraded in society. For example, Africa , the women still do not have their full rights, they have to fulfill only the domestic needs. This is an issue because gender inequality hasn’t been solved yet. Countries life Africa, should reconsider the women in their country and their rights and make it fair so they aren’t degraded. Also have women become part of their society.
