Nº 5: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls

Women and girls represent half of the world’s population and therefore also half of its potential. But gender
inequality persists everywhere and stagnates social progress.

On average, women in the labor market still earn 23 percent less than men globally. On average, women spend
about three times as many hours in unpaid domestic and care work as men.

Sexual violence and exploitation, the unequal division of unpaid care and domestic work, and discrimination in
public office, all remain huge barriers. All these areas of inequality have been exacerbated by the COVID-19
pandemic: there has been a surge in reports of sexual violence, women have taken on more care work due to
school closures, and 70% of health and social workers globally are women.

As of 2014, 143 countries have guaranteed equality between men and women in their constitutions, but 52 have yet
to take this step.

Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and
sustainable world.
