WENEEDGENDER EQUALITY!
GENDER EQUALITY IS ACHIEVED WHEN
WOMEN AND MEN ENJOY THE SAME
RIGHTS AND OPPORTUNITIES ACROSS
ALL SECTORS OF SOCIETY, INCLUDING
ECONOMIC PARTICIPATION AND
DECISION-MAKING, AND WHEN THE
DIFFERENT BEHAVIORS, ASPIRATIONS
AND NEEDS OF WOMEN AND MEN ARE
EQUALLY VALUED AND FAVORED.

WE ALL USE STEREOTYPES,
ALL THE TIME, WITHOUT KNOWING
IT. WE HAVE MET THE ENEMY OF
EQUALITY, AND THE ENEMY IS US.‘’
