GENDER EQUALITY
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR WOMEN AND GIRLS
Many women and girls in our community remain confined to traditional domestic roles. There is a significant need to create more opportunities that empower women and harness their untapped potential active contributors. We must strive for equal rights, develop women-led business models, foster women-led local economies and industries, and enhance civic participation, ensuring that women have a stronger voice in civil society, local, and public policy.
