Achieving gender equality and empowering all women and girls is not only the right thing to do—it’s essential for sustainable development. While progress has been made over the decades, the world remains off track to achieve gender equality by 2030. Women and girls represent half of the world’s population and half of its potential, yet gender inequality persists, hindering social progress. Barriers such as sexual violence, unequal domestic responsibilities, and limited representation in leadership continue to challenge meaningful change. Even today, women hold only 30% of managerial positions globally and dedicate two and a half times more hours to unpaid care work than men.
