how does gender contribute to inequality and discrimination?
Answers
hi there,
gender contribute to inequality and discrimination by following ways-
Culturally diverse communities
Women from culturally diverse communities face additional barriers to education and employment as a result of:
language barriers
racism and discrimination
lack of culturally responsive services
lack of access to information about their rights
the legal system and the support systems
available in their languages
separation from family and other support networks
insecure visa status.
In particular, migrant and refugee women are overrepresented in insecure and low paid work.
Rural and regional Victoria
In rural and regional Victoria, female leaders are innovative in capitalising on community and social connectivity to improve outcomes for women and girls. With limited telecommunications and lack of connection to public services, rural and regional women are at risk of poorer health outcomes and have greater vulnerability to family violence.
Thanks
Answer:
- Gender inequality can be defined as allowing people different opportunities due to perceived differences based solely on issues of gender. Gender discrimination is the prejudicial treatment of an individual or group due to gender. Gender is commonly defined as the social identity of the sexes.
