Report on Detailed Evidence

It is vital to understand why women have not been given the importance which they deserve and why things have always been on the wrong track. There are so many issues in every aspect of life for women. For instance, if the labor market is analyzed across the globe, it is found that men and women are not only different in their status, but what kind of positions will be given to both genders.

The key findings of the study are mentioned in this section. According to the World Economic Forum, the gender inequality for women is not only in the employment field, but the women also have to face this inequality in politics, economics, health, and education sectors. A study was conducted to analyze the gender equality’s geography across the globe, so data was collected from 47 countries all around the world. The results of the study showed that women who were head of their households, they were not only less in wealth but in terms of land occupation as compared to men. There are various fields that are perceived that women cannot work efficiently. One good example is the field of electrical engineering. In the United States, a report mentioned that there are only around 5% of standard companies that have women as their CEOs. In the United States, the typical woman will only get 78 cents for every single dollar that a man could get.

The women are not equally treated in the labor market, and they are not thought to be as skillful and capable of the job, as men are thought to be. That’s why, in the first place, women are not preferred for various jobs, and if they are selected, then they are paid less than men. There is so much disparity in terms of different job roles, like women are not considered for leadership roles as compared to men (Shambaugh & Nunn, 2018). It also means that women are mostly preferred for low paid jobs with lower growth and opportunities. There are various fields where it is perceived that women cannot work efficiently. One good example is the field of electrical engineering. It is believed that such fields are not suitable for women, so the number of women studying such majors is also very low (Cifre, Vera, Sánchez-Cardona, & Cuyper, 2018).

According to the World Economic Forum, the gender inequality for women is not only in the employment field, but the women also have to face this inequality in politics, economics, health, and education sectors. The women are deprived of so many rights in these fields, and if things are going to continue like this, the future is darker for women in this regard (Iversen, 2017). Looking at these facts, it is evident that things are not going in the right direction, and global stakeholders are struggling to develop a policy for women to deal with the issues of gender inequality so that women are given equal status in society. The women are also facing the issues of land inequality as well as wealth inequality. A study was conducted to analyze the gender equality’s geography across the globe, so data was collected from 47 countries all around the world. The results of the study showed that women who were head of their households, they were not only less in wealth but in terms of land occupation as compared to men. These great numbers coming from a research study are evident to say that there is huge gender gap all across the globe, which needs serious attention from all the stakeholders (Fisher & Naidoo, 2016)

After looking at some general evidence from all over the world, it is time to shift focus towards the developing countries so that discussion can come to its major point regarding the role of female politicians in the progress of women and their equality. A study was conducted in 2016, and the purpose of this research study was to investigate why and how gender inequality is driven in education. To get a proper view of the developing world, 57 countries were included in this detailed research study. The research was trying to find the answer to why gender inequality has persisted in 57 countries from the developing world from 1970 to 2010. Two

major associated factors were analyzed; first, the capacity of the state, and the second willingness of the state. The data taken from different countries were actually concerned with gender inequality and disparities in the secondary education sector. The results taken from the study showed that the capacity of the state was not a considerable issue; rather, the willingness of the state lacked to bring gender equality in education. The income level, as well as the capacity of the state institutions, was not found to be associated with the issue of gender inequality. It was also observed that countries with heterogeneous ethnic backgrounds, as well as countries that have Islam as their primary region, were found to be lower in the percentage of gender equality. This research comes up with very informative results for the stakeholders of the developing world that they have to increase their level of willingness as well as change the mindset of society to bring in more gender equality to mitigate the evil of gender inequality (Østby, Urdal, & Rudolfsen, 2016)

The number of women CEOs in the market is still less than men CEOs. In fact, in the United States, a report mentioned that there are only around 5% of standard companies that have women as their CEOs. This data is worrisome with regards to the issue of gender equality because if only 5% of women are CEOs of companies as compared to men, then there are certainly serious issues in the society around the world (Edgecliffe-Johnson, 2018). Notwithstanding the fact that complete income similarity could increase up to 26% to the world GDP by 2025, women all over the world are yet massively underpaid if we compare with the male. In the United States, the typical woman will only get 78 cents for every single dollar that a man could get. In the worldwide, that difference is even inferior, at merely 50 cents compared to one dollar. These detailed pieces of evidence from all across the globe are good enough to
