Gender and Economic Inequality
Gender and economic inequality refer to the disparities in opportunities, treatment, and rewards based on gender. Women and gender minorities often face barriers like wage gaps, limited access to certain jobs or leadership roles, and workplace discrimination. These inequalities result from social norms, policies, and biases that favor one gender over others, leading to unequal economic outcomes. Addressing these issues involves promoting fair pay, equal opportunities, and challenging stereotypes to create a more just economic system for everyone.
