Sommario/riassunto

This book, 'Gender Equality and Equity,' provides a comprehensive exploration of gender issues, emphasizing the importance of overcoming systemic barriers and societal norms to achieve a more inclusive and equitable world. It combines research, personal narratives, and diverse perspectives to examine intersections with race, class, and sexuality. The book outlines historical milestones, influential figures, and practical strategies for promoting gender equality in



education, workplace, healthcare, and legal systems. It is aimed at policymakers, activists, scholars, and anyone committed to a future where gender does not limit opportunities. Edited by Rachael Moore, an LGBT+ activist and DEI consultant, it seeks to inspire action and challenge preconceived notions in pursuit of a just society.
