/
in englischer Sprache“Frauenrechte sind Menschenrechte“, lautete ein Slogan in den 1990er-Jahren. Immer noch ist die Ungleichheit zwischen den Geschlechtern eines der größten Hindernisse für nachhaltige Entwicklung, ökonomisches Wachstum und Armutsreduktion. Ziel 5 der nachhaltigen Entwicklungsziele (SDGs) empfiehlt die Chancengleichheit zwischen Männern und Frauen in der ökonomischen Entwicklung, die Beseitigung aller Formen von Gewalt gegen Frauen und Mädchen, die Eliminierung von Früh- und Zwangsverheiratungen sowie gleichberechtigte Partizipation auf allen Ebenen.
