"Achieving gender equality is everyone's responsibility." - Abaker, Musa , Ezekiel & Digital Bimpe

It is a reminder that gender equality is not just a women's issue, but a human issue that we all need to work together to achieve.

Sustainable Development Goal 5 (SDG 5 or Global Goal 5) concerns gender equality and is fifth of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by United Nations in 2015.

The 17 SDGs recognize that action in one area will affect outcomes in others, and that development must balance social, economic and environmental sustainability.

Gender Equality is very important discourse. However we must try to distinguish between Gender Equality and Gender Equity.
The more apt and correct Goal is Gender Equity.
Definitions:

Equality:
1. (not comparable) The same in all respects.
Equal conditions should produce equal results.
All men are created equal.

2. (mathematics, not comparable) Exactly identical, having the same value.
All right angles are equal.

Equity:
1. Fairness, impartiality, or justice as determined in light of "natural law" or "natural right".

Since our genders are naturally and biologically created unequal it is wrong to claim gender equality.

Equity recognises our natural and biological inequalities while ensuring fairness and justice in the rights suitable to each gender.

Gender Equity in the real sense actually favors women than men. When we start to consider the fact that women are given access to the same rights and jobs as men while being exempted from the hardships due to being weaker vessels yet collecting the same remuneration, including pregnancy and as nursing mothers. Men don't get this same treatment since we can't be pregnant.lol Even single fathers are not considered for paternity leave in most countries.

While gender equality actually favors men than women. Especially when we start to consider the not-so-rosy responsibilities and jobs imposed on men by virtue of being created as men. Or In dating and marriages, women in most cases often find it difficult when the roles are reversed/swapped.

So really it's a matter of mutual understanding.

Thank you for sharing

Dear Bimpe,

Why this project has not been successful since 2000 is simply because the objective was not clearly defined and the caption is false.

There can never be gender equality because the Maker never made them equal. He shared the strengths and weaknesses between the two genders according to their purposes.

The term gender equality has been twisted severally for different ulterior motives which includes the current day misandry popularly termed feminism.

What I believe the advocacy should be about is "gender equity" and not equality.
