For my report, I will discuss the topic “Gender Inequality in Education”. In the past, young girls were treated as though their only purpose was to cook meals and clean. Today, in some developing countries, this remains the same. Throughout this report, I will explore how and why many young girls in rural India are not receiving the same level of education as young boys, and outline a Sustainable Development Goal that could improve the situation.

It must be rather odd for me to write you this letter as we’ve never met each other, not to mention talk to each other. Despite that, you had inspired me to be who I want to be, not the society wants me to be. The main reason to write this letter to you is to share my experience to you and show my admiration of your persistence. Actually, gender inequality in the United States and China
Member States have been trying to leave the course of the gender gap problem behind. However, it can be said that social and economic gender inequalities still tear away the social fabrics, undermine social solidity and preclude member states, their societies and youth generations from flourishing.

So as people think that women in countries have fully achieved all their goals, they are all considerately wrong.

GENDER EQUALITY When it comes to gender, a lot of thoughts rush in especially regarding the equal treatment towards both men and women. It has always been a controversial and debated matter of issue addressed mainly by women seeking for their ‘rights’. So then, what is this right that we constantly keep speaking of?
