As the world transitions towards a green and digital future, gender inequalities remain a critical challenge. This pivotal moment offers a unique opportunity to advance gender equality by opening up new economic prospects and promoting diverse participation in decision-making processes.
While the shift towards environmental sustainability and digital societies has the potential to reduce gender disparities, it also highlights ongoing issues such as wage gaps, limited leadership roles for women, and the rise of technology-facilitated gender-based violence.
The paper underscores the need to promote the skills required for these fields and to integrate gender equality into relevant policies and strategies.
