GOAL 3:
PROMOTE GENDER EQUALITY AND EMPOWER WOMEN
·
The developing
countries as a whole have achieved the target to eliminate gender disparity in
primary, secondary and tertiary education.
·
Globally, about
three quarters of working-age men participate in the labour force, compared to
half of working-age women.
·
Women make up 41
per cent of paid workers outside of agriculture, an increase from 35 per cent
in 1990.
·
The average
proportion of women in parliament has nearly doubled over the past 20 years.
·
Women continue to
experience significant gaps in terms of poverty, labour market and wages, as
well as participation in private and public decision-making.
