GOAL 3: PROMOTE GENDER EQUALITY AND EMPOWER WOMEN
Key Facts:
The world has achieved equality in primary education between girls and boys, but only 2 out of 130 countries have achieved that target at all levels of education.
Globally, 40 out of every 100 wage-earning jobs in the non-agricultural sector were held by women in 2011. This is a significant improvement since 1990.
In many countries, gender inequality persists and women continue to face discrimination in access to education, work and economic assets, and participation in government. For example, in every developing region, women tend to hold less secure jobs than men, with fewer social benefits.
Violence against women continues to undermine efforts to reach all goals.
Poverty is a major barrier to secondary education, especially among older girls.
Women are largely relegated to more vulnerable forms of employment.
