INTRODUCTION

Gender equality continues to be a prevalent issue in society today due to the persistent
gap in terms of access to opportunities for women and men. Gender equality is a
fundamental human right that every human being is entitled to regardless of their race,
ethnicity, sexuality or religion. The roles men and women play in society are socially
determined and as a result the gender gap is wide.

In today's world, when you look around there are so many different types of people.
Different races, different backgrounds, and also different stories. We live in a world of a
diverse group of people. Some would think living in such a diverse world we would form
a common ground and maybe unite together to be "equal" but that is far from true.

Gender equality, also known as sexual equality, is the state of equal ease of access to
resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and
decision-making; and the state of valuing different behaviors, aspirations and needs
equally, regardless of gender.
Unequal access to power and resources is a major cause of discrimination against
women in the state, community, market and their own households. This inequality
contributes to the inadequate distribution of food, resulting in malnutrition and maternal
health risks

Gender equality will be achieved only when women and men enjoy the same opportunities,
rights and obligations in all spheres of life. This means sharing equally in the distribution of
power and influence, and having equal opportunities for financial independence, education and
realizing their personal ambitions.
