The Big Picture - Gender Equality Challenges

According to the first SDG Gender Index released this week no country in the world is on the track to achieve Gender Equality by the year 2030. The Sustainable Development Goals which 193 countries signed up in 2015 creates a global roadmap to eradicate poverty and protect the planet.
The Gender Index developed by Equal Measures 2030 which is a joint effort of regional and global organisations says that 2.8 billion girls and women live in countries that scored very poor or poor in the ranking.
India is tanked 95th among 129 countries with a score of 56.2 out of 100. Health , hunger and nutrition and energy are some of the parameters on which India has scores well but it's lowest scores are on partnership , industry , infrastructure and innovation .
So what are the challenges and roadmap in achieving the target of Gender Equality.

i have some discord with barkha mam , on the issue that India is not male dominating society . As rural India is concerned their is huge gape between the liberty of man and women . I am living in village which is not soo backward as other village of India . what I see their women are exploited physically for field work and house work . They have no free time for entertainment . They are totally depend on male of their houses . They are mentally tortured by male of their house and by society directly and indirectly . Reality is that they no idea about their rights .As rural girls is concerned ,they have no ambition about their personal life and their is lots of restrictions on their thoughts . They have no idea about that life is not confined to marriage .

If we go from, Delhi to Ghaziabad, even at some other place via metro, Daily cost of metro of one person both sides Around Rs 100, if a woman of daily wage worker wanted to work in Delhi in shops, or in restaurant , she will think twice wheather to go or not to go.. because Maximum expenditure will spend on traveling..

Barkha Ji gave a full twist to whole discussion by including men into the discussion and it was seen in other panelist views which were earlier only for women and then including men as well. Ministry for Men was a very good suggestion! Yeah, few points of her regarding 'rape capital' being a false or fake propaganda was un-necessary but overall a nice discussion from all panel members

[@garimamahajan3045]

Barkha mam gave different perspective but i think thats not the real issue.. No doubt that boys do suffer a lot but women suffer more than them in real life.. It may be at working place, at homes, at streets or wherever they go.. So earlier for many years men were given preference for anything but now its time to empower women so that they come at equal level to men and then we'll definitely have a healthy debate about gender neutral law

[@garimamahajan3045]

@SHUBHAM HANDEonly women empowerment will lead to gender equality. Rest the panelist barkha mam said is all ok..she gave different perspective i mentioned in the beginning sir.. So if free rides are given to women why not men.. If scholarship for girls are 3000 then why 2500 for boys.. That's so true.. Laws should be there for both of them and should be similar.. But what i meant is that first let the women come in front.. Let them get empowered.. After all its male dominated society

[@garimamahajan3045]

@SHUBHAM HANDE SIR, i don't want to argue or debate with u.. Unless u ensure me that its a healthy discussion.. And also i don't see gender equality and women empowerment as two different topics.. I agree gender equality is issue all over the world but what different about india is many girls are uneducated. Forget Quality Education they are not even getting education.. They must not even be knowing that there's a issue like gender equality.. On the other hand, people send their boys to study, higher education.. And the thinking can be changed through education or rather quality education About rape capital.. I have no knowledge.. But suggestions from u are welcomed.. And thank you for replying to my comment 😊😊

[@garimamahajan3045]

@SHUBHAM HANDE same is my family.. They also never discriminate between me, my brother and my sister.. But its not about u and me.. There are lakhs of villages and lakhs of girls there.. We talk about equality when there is discrimination right? In rural areas even now there is female infoeticide, girls are not sent to schools whereas boys are, no attention is given on their nutrition and health whereas boys are given attention.. And to the surprise, these are women and old ladies in villages who behave like this.. Why?? Because They are uneducated.. They are not even allowed to do what they want.. So your question is on what grounds women are asking for equality.. I just want to say that when all the women will have the power to make their own decisions.. Take their stand.. Their is no male dominance.. When men can take all decision themselves then why not women.. Let the women or girl be like me or ur sister that is independent.. Am not independent yet 😂 btw .. And you forgot to tell me about rape capital.. Please tell.. I really have no idea.. Thank you 😊 i just hope that i make sense somehow..

It encourages women to take parts in industrial activities, political and other male dominance areas exists which are the parameters where India did bad in the report. Apart from this social attitudes need to be changed towards women . As Rekha ma'm said. She pointed the issue out from the free rides for women in delhi.

The SDG Gender Index is itself discriminatory. It only talks about women and that with respect to a specific "western" culture. SDG Gender Index with my comments:- When I look at the parameters and do the analysis, it's shocking that the parameters itself are very very gender biased. Some of the the parameters do not even consider "men" as a gender. 😢😢 5.1 End all forms of discrimination against all women and girls everywhere. What about men and boys? Don't they also have a gender? Or are they not human? 5.2 Eliminate all forms of violence against all women and girls in the public and private spheres, including trafficking and sexual and other types of exploitation. Again what about men and boys? Meaning of Gender equality itself has changed. 5.3 Eliminate all harmful practices, such as child, early and forced marriage and female genital mutilation. Again all parameters for female only. What about male versus female percentage of child labour, Child bullying. % Unnatural deaths , % suicides, % of workforce in dangerous jobs, %deaths dur to cancer, life expectancy???? The list is long. 5.4 Recognize and value unpaid care and domestic work through the provisions of public services, infrastructure and social protection policies and the promotion of shared responsibility within the household and the family as nationally appropriate. All things totally focused on women. What about unpaid care men do like assisting in shopping, driving car and beating traffic. Financial and social planning. Endangering themselves in the all the risky work. What about shared responsibility outside households? Remember, a patriarchal society puts all these responsibility on men. 5.5 Ensure women's full and effective participation and equal opportunities for leadership at all levels of decision-making in political, economic and public life. Who is stopping them. In When a woman raises the issue of a farmers, it becomes a news. All know about a woman's mindset. Less said better. I am leaving 5.6 and 5.a, 5.b 5.c. They are also on similar lines.

What aghast me is most of youth still go for this practice. “ Hume kuch nahi chahiye bas baratiyo ka swagat shasndaar hona chahiye”???? Where is men empowerment when it comes to Dowry? Equality for sharing house chores...share in raising kids, take care of one’s own old parents. Why only women when both men and women are working? Education - hygiene facilities, transport, safety! Work - how women can work when so many jobs requires flexible work hours like doctors/nurse, airline industry, Call centers, etc...when still women traveling alone is unsafe! There are law but enforcement is a? Reliable and good Child care system in a given radius. Fraternal leave...no one spoke about it???

Such a superficial debate!! Far away from Realities

I don't agree with Barkha mam, because she is not aware from ground reality , she says girls r empowerd, bt she don't know ground reality , she need to look at our sex ratios

Look around the realty of men. When any women speaks for men u guys get pissed coz u hypocrite don't want to acknowledge the other side of story...

No ma'am (Barkha Tehran) women are "not empowered" to this day I hear women dropping studies to take care of their families, to this day every women I know is sexually harassed more than once and to this day we have to work harder to be heard because Male domination exists and is not a myth. It puts my heart at agony to see your understanding about women issues being dangerously skewed. By ignoring the real issues you are not helping anyone because patriarchy is an enemy of men as much as it is of women.
