Empowering women is essential to the health and social development of families, communities and countries.
Gender equality is a basic human right, and it is also fundamental to having a peaceful, prosperous world.
However, girls and women continue to face significant challenges all around the world. Women are typically underrepresented in power and decision-making roles. They receive unequal pay for equal work, and they often face legal and other barriers that affect their opportunities at work.
In the developing world, girls and women are often seen as less valuable than boys. Instead of being sent to school, they are often made to do domestic work at home or are married off for a dowry before they are adults. As many as 12 million underage girls are married every year.
While some progress is being made in various parts of the world, there is still a great deal left to be done to right the problems of gender inequality.
