REFLECTION QUESTION
Health & Equity

What are some of the barriers that exist to women and girl's equitable participation or representation in your community? Do you experience these barriers?

As society tries to make the world a gender-stigma free zone there is always the fear that the male-counterparts would suit better for the workplace since they do not have to experience what women do.
