Introduction
I will start by giving insight on gender equality and the affected group and finally give solution to end the discrimination everywhere. Gender equality is an alarming issue today in the community. The most affected people are the women and girls across the globe. Females have been discriminated in various department and in different perspectives. Due to what women has been undergoing, there is need to end all forms of discrimination that they face. Termination all forms of discrimination against women and girls is not only a main human right, but also an essential to enhancing sustainable development. It has been confirmed that, empowering both women and girls has a multiplier effect as well as driving up the economic growth and development across the nation. As from 2000, the UNDP associated with the UN and the remaining community, has seen the need of focusing on gender equality as its work. There has been a remarkable progress since that moment where more girls are now learning comparing to the previous 15 years ago. Also, the majority of gender has also arrived at gender parity in the main learning. The Sustainable development goals targets on success to make sure that discrimination has been ended against women and girls everywhere. There is also inequalities when it comes labor market in some area since women are denied entry to jobs. An example is in Arabic regions where women have low changes of employment compared to men. This has brought up the concept of high rate of unemployment among the young women (Andersson et al., 2018).
Whenever the word gender and gender equality are mentioned in any conversation, an idea is based on a conversation concerning women and girls. The voice of women has been marginalized and subordinated in various communities. As per the authors, in order to restrict work, policy development and politics on gender and for gender equality and women’s empowerment as a task women needs to be based with may easily let men off the hook and even proposes that it the women in need of change instead of men. In addition, gender equality and women’s empowerment are main to the achievement of all the sustainable development goals. The key aim of sustainable development goals as per this article is to eliminate harmful exercises like forced marriages unpaid care and domestic chaos via provision of community facilities, social security and infrastructure hence enhancing shared roles in households and families at the same time making sure that women’s whole and effective participation and equal chances for leaders when it comes to all levels of making effective choice in public life. The authors argues further that since gender equality has been an issues in the community, there should be universal entry to sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights, give women and girls equal rights when it comes to economic resources and entry to ownership and regulation against land, assets, finance, natural materials, enhance technology and enhance women’s equality and women’s and girls’ empowerment (Johansson et al., 2019).
According to Kantola and Verloo (2018), there is need to explore the ways in which gender equality is employed in gender and political studies. According to the authors of the article, there are four strategies used in politics and gender research. One is escaping equality, fixing equality, deconstructing equality or even delegating equality to political concepts. This concept is encouraged through the beliefs that whatever is needed is additional reflection on selection, though a productive dialogue among the varied strategies. The main aim of the strategies is to give insight on what women and girls undergoes in the community and the need to help them overcome the discrimination. They are taken as inferior compared to men in the society. Khosla et al. 2017 gives much information concerning the gender imbalance in terms of gender equality and human rights concerning female genital mutation. There is idea that 200,000,000 women and girls are approximated to have undergone genital mutilation and the remaining group of 15,000,000 of girls are termed to be at risk of facing it. The act of FGM is considered as an international concern. Despite the past determinations to eliminate the act of FGM, and the increase requires a clear directions on the treatment and care of women who have faced FGM .There is further argument that international determination to handle FGM has thus based mainly on preventing the exercise with little focus on treating connected health complications, caring for survivors and appealing healthcare givers as the main stakeholders. The act of FGM is an act that is against the international norms and thus both women and girls should have right to freedom and not to be forced to undergo FGM as it is unhealthy act and has effect to them.
Women are not respected in the community and are not treated as men in the communication. There is a lot of violence against women and girls in the community and the issue a controversial issue in the public concern. The main goal of Kasuma and Babu (2017), bases on targeting sustainable development goals connected to eradication of violence against both women and girls and to explain the structure to aim these objectives. According to the article, prevention of violence against women and girls has been determined as one of the main agents for sustainable development. As per the authors, Sustainable development goals provides sufficient significance and calls all the eradication of all ways of violence against women and girls everywhere. In addition, it determines social and political leaders of lowering which are aimed under various sustainable development goals. This understands the approaches that violence against women and girl is likely to be prevented and is them structured to stop and eliminate it. Confirmations indicates that stopping violence against women and girls is possible vial various sectorial programs. The UN determined to invigorated international association to rally resources for applying the outline. Thus, designing and applying interventions and then scaling up and escalating the interventions are needed in order to terminate violence against women and girls.
Conclusion
Women has been facing a lot of challenges in the community as they fight for their rights. Women liberation is well explained in feminism where women are considered to be people of no power in the community. We live in a community where men have dominated and this has led to gender bias. Gender equality has not been achieved because the voice of women and girls has been excluded in the international decision making. Allowing them to lobby their ideas when it comes to internal decisions will help in solving the existing discrimination. There should be no forced marriages and sexual harassment. Both women are girls need to have education as men by ensuring education gender sensitive. Proper value is required to be given to the work undertaken by women and this will end violence against women and girls in the community.
Gender equality is very essential in the community and thus, gender imbalance has resulted to a lot of challenges effecting women and girls. All people are the same and should have same roles and opportunities in families and in the community as well. This is well explained by the feminism theory where it argues that both men and women needs similar treatment. There are fields which are believed to have more dominance compared to others (Clatterbaugh, 2018). As per the feminism theory, women and should be treated the same with men and be offered similar opportunities at work. The gender equality can be achieved by helping women to fight for their rights and get what they deserve. There is belief among people that men dominate the operating world compared to women and thus women are sideline at work and provided with less motivation as compared women (Fotaki & Harding, 2017). Also, there is another belief that many women are taken advantage of while at work and thus, there is need for them to be sensitized to acquire their roles and to claim for what they deserve. Therefore, Sustainable development goals provides sufficient significance and calls all the eradication of all ways of discrimination against women and girls everywhere. In addition, it determines social and political leaders of lowering which are aimed under various sustainable development goals. This understands the approaches that discrimination against women and girls is likely to be prevented and is them structured to stop and eliminate it. Confirmations indicates that stopping violence against women and girls is possible vial various sectorial programs.
