5. What is gender equality?
Gender 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.

Gender equality is also a
human right

8. How does
gender
equality count
as a human
right?
Human rights are the basic
rights and freedoms that
belong to every person in
the world, from birth until
death.
They apply regardless of
where one is from, what one
believes or how one chooses
to live one’s life.
They can never be taken
away, although they can
sometimes be restricted.

9. Issues faced due to gender inequality
● Women have always faced
discrimination for their gender. Be
it early marriages, no right to
education, no right to make their
own choices or high wage gap,
lack of opportunities today.
● While other genders like
LGBTQ have just risen and
have faced discrimination for
the longest for being different
from the crowd.

10. ● Discrimination based on
genders can and has lead
to deadly circumstances.
● Women were burnt alive
on account of their
spouse’s death in ancient
India according to a ritual
called Sati Pratha.
● They were never
educated and when done
they are still considered
inferior than men.
● LGBTQ community is
bullied since the first to the
last day of their lives.
● Women are still not
provided maternal and
reproductive health rights.
● Discrimination based on
genders in work fields and
even in day to day lives of
women and other genders.
● Discrimination from society,
family and friends .

17. Conclusion:
Inequality has always been there be it on the basis of
colour or gender. The change is there but it is slow
and there's an entire war left to fight.
Being equal to each other is a right every human
should have but the society has always been male
dominating. Today is the high time to bring a change
for the better.
