Worldwide, women?s employment, income, and leadership opportunities lag men?s. Building and using a one-of-a-kind database that covers 193 countries, this book systematically analyzes how far we?ve come and how far we have to go in adopting evidence-based solutions to close the gaps. Spanning topics including girls? education, employment discrimination of all kinds, sexual harassment, and caregiving needs across the life course, the authors bring the findings to life through global maps, stories of laws? impact in courts and beyond, and case studies of making change. A powerful call to action, Equality within Our Lifetimes reveals how gender equality is both feasible and urgently needed to address some of the greatest challenges of our generation. 606 $aEquality before the law 606 $aEquality$xEconomic aspects 606 $aSex discrimination in employment 606 $aSex discrimination$xEconomic aspects 606 $aLAW / Gender & the Law$2bisacsh 615 0$aEquality before the law. 615 0$aEquality$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aSex discrimination in employment. 615 0$aSex discrimination$xEconomic aspects. 615 7$aLAW / Gender & the Law. 676 $a342.08/5 700 $aHeymann$b Jody, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01350514 702 $aRaub$b Amy, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aSprague$b Aleta, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 912 $a996517759803316 996 $aEquality within Our Lifetimes$93088668 997 $aUNISA
