Gender Equality: A Pillar for Progress and Justice Gender equality is crucial for building a just and thriving society. When all individuals, regardless of gender, have equal access to opportunities and resources, we harness diverse perspectives and talents that drive innovation and progress. Achieving gender equality means breaking down barriers and challenging stereotypes, ensuring that everyone can contribute their full potential without facing discrimination. This not only enriches our communities but also paves the way for a more equitable and harmonious world. Let's continue to pave the way for an equitable and harmonious world where every voice is heard, valued, and empowered. Together, we can create a future that thrives on inclusivity and justice. 💪 www.shebusinesstime.com #GenderEquality #EqualOpportunities #Innovation #ProgressForAll #SheBusinessTime #KRBFoundation #JanitriInternational

To further our commitments to equal opportunities and gender-friendly career advancement we've just launched a Gender Equality Plan (GEP). This new GEP includes recommendations for COST Actions and outlines the responsibilities of the COST Association. The idea is to encourage COST Actions to incorporate a gender dimension in their activities and provide suggestions on how to advance gender equality in what they do. We strive to promote an inclusive culture and create a ‘gender equality mindset’ among Action participants. There are many best practise examples already available within the community. We feature examples from ENIS Cost Action, COST Action CA22120 LeverAge, COSY COST ACTION CA21101, PEN@Hydropower, CA PRIORITY and COST Fintech and Artificial Intelligence in Finance demonstrating how these networks have embraced gender inclusion into the fabric of their networks. Discover more about the GEP 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eW4qhwds With Judith Litjens, MARÍA PILAR DE LARA-CASTELLS, Mariasole Bannò, and Alessandra Tanda #COSTactions #ScienceWithoutBorders #WomenInSTEAM #GenderEquality

When we advocate for gender equality, we're not taking away from anyone else's rights or opportunities. Instead, we're working towards creating a more just and equitable society where everyone has the chance to thrive, regardless of gender. Gender equality benefits everyone. It means breaking down barriers and biases that hold individuals back based on their gender identity. It means creating workplaces where meritocracy reigns supreme and talents are recognized regardless of gender. It means fostering environments where everyone feels safe, respected, and empowered to pursue their dreams. So let's reject the idea that achieving gender equality is a zero-sum game. Instead, let's embrace it as an opportunity to build a brighter, more inclusive future for all. #GenderEquality #EqualRights #Inclusion #WomensEmpowerment

The Gender Equality Paradox 📍Today, let's throwback to my print publication from a few years ago, where I emphasized the importance of balance in implementing Gender Equality programs. 📍My stance remains that it is crucial to prioritize outcome-focused design in gender programming interventions. 📍By doing so, Gender Program specialists can identify the need for targeted and inclusive approaches, whether it's women-only, men-only, or both. 📍Understanding these dynamics is vital, as Gender Equality encompasses a broad spectrum because our ultimate goal is to achieve equality where both men and women can exercise their human rights and freedoms with equitable access to all resources. Wishing you a fulfilling Wednesday. #GenderEquality #Balance #Inclusion #HumanRights

Inclusion is a journey, and not a destination. While it may not always be perfect, it's important to acknowledge when progress is being made. To fully build an inclusive culture, everyone must feel that they belong, valued and empowered. To achieve that, the whole team must be involved in the transformation. Are we too late to enjoy the fruits of true inclusion? According to the World Economic Forum, we still need 151 years to achieve gender equality. And that's only looking at gender. Yes, we might be too late. But if we start being intentional now about building organizations that embrace inclusion, we could reach that future faster. #TEDxTalk #TEDxPretoria #Inclusion #Diversity #TED #Strategy

Today; let's recognize the critical role men can and play in promoting inclusion and advancing gender equality. Today; let's also acknowledge that many of the gendered role and division created by the society offer an unfair advantage to men. But men; along with other gender; can lead by example by challenging and breaking prevailing stereotypes; and by advocating for equitable opportunities. Today; let's celebrate the contributions of men in advancing gender equity. Together; we can build a better future where everyone; regardless of gender; can shine and thrive. #internationalmensday# #genderequity#
