Let’s end gender inequality
Let’s ensure freedom from violence.
Let’s correct the systematic undervaluation of women’s work
- It’s essential to eradicate all forms of gender inequality and dismantle the structures that perpetuate gender bias.
- Reassess the value of women’s roles, recognizing their responsibility and importance to society, as undervaluing women’s work is a primary cause of the gender pay gap.
- Women’s economic stability is affected by reduced pension rights due to wage discrimination, undervaluation of women’s work, and unpaid work over a lifetime.
- Equal parental leave needs to be ensured for both parents to promote balanced caregiving responsibilities.
- Let’s eliminate attitudes and systems that perpetuate gender-based violence, and ensure all cases of violence are handled promptly and professionally within the justice system.
- Survivors should be able to be full participants in cases of sexual violence and hold the state liable for compensation if cases are dropped due to investigative errors or procedural delays.
- ● New approaches need to be developed in order to address sexual offences, ensure consequences for perpetrators, and support survivors.Process of obtaining restraining orders needs to be simpler for victims of domestic violence, and violations should be fined.
- Criminal law needs to undergo changes to address online offenses, such as deepfakes, and strengthen legislation and actions against digital sexual violence.
- Let’s guarantee comprehensive support across the healthcare system for survivors of domestic violence.
- Programs addressing violence prevention among children and youth should be introduced, addressing the impact of pornography, and teaching about emotions, intimacy, boundaries, and consent.
- Full consideration needs to be ensured to the unique circumstances of survivors of sex trafficking and exploitation. The Directorate of Immigration’s deportation procedures must reflect this.
- Let’s establish a socially supportive path out of prostitution and all forms of trafficking by securing income, housing, and protection for trafficking victims. Ensure funding and personnel for the anti-trafficking action plan.
Let’s combat rising misogyny and prejudice in society by all available means.
