Men and Gender Equality

Male and female (equality) equality is related to men and women and has a great influence on their daily lives. Historically, since women have become the driving force behind gender equality strategy and struggle, gender equality policy has been regarded mainly as "women's problem".

This view brought to the recognition that women are the only people that can benefit from a more equal society. Indeed, men also benefit from gender equality because they also face male-female problems such as reduced life expectancy, bad health conditions, low educational backgrounds and strict gender norms. It is essential for both women and men to recognize the benefits that gender equality brings to individual and social members and members of society. It can be successful for the first time through participation of both men and women.

Therefore, since this is a way to achieve change, it is important to involve many men through gender equality. To do this, it is also necessary to inform men how gender equality is related to them.

When girls are educated, they can focus on other things rather than marry at a young age. They can serve the community in many ways by practicing the occupation they desire. This helps to play an important role in society.

Achieving gender equality begins with attracting people around us. Gender education and awareness raising are important steps to ensure gender equality.

To achieve gender equality, participation of women and men, girls and boys is necessary. This is the responsibility of everyone. Ban Ki Moon
