About this ebook

Global Gains offers a comprehensive analysis of gender equality across the globe, moving beyond superficial observations to examine concrete metrics in political representation, economic empowerment, and access to education and healthcare. The book challenges the notion of consistent, linear progress, revealing how advancements often remain uneven and fragile across different countries and regions. Readers will discover that while many nations have made strides, significant disparities persist. For instance, even with increasing female participation in the workforce, the gender pay gap remains a stubborn issue globally.

The book approaches the topic systematically, first defining key concepts and metrics, then delving into each of the core themes with comparative analyses. It addresses historical power structures and social norms that perpetuate gender inequality, while also referencing international agreements like CEDAW. Through its data-driven approach, Global Gains provides valuable insights for policymakers, activists, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of achieving true gender parity and the nuances of women in government. The book challenges complacency and promotes the need for targeted interventions to achieve more equitable outcomes.
