Hello, and thank you for inviting me to talk about gender equality. Well, first, let's begin with equality in
wages.
Wage discrimination happens when workers are equally qualified and perform the same work, but some
workers are paid more than others. Very often, wage discrimination affects women negatively.
On average, women work more than men, but they earn much less. I can give you some information.
Women perform sixty-six per cent of the world's work, produce fifty per cent of the food, but earn ten per
cent of the income and own one percent of the property.
