Brazil: Gender equality is still a dream

Categories: Latin America, Brazil, Women & Gender

Cynthia Semírami [1] [pt] comments on the latest Global Gender Gap Report by the World Economic Forum covering a total of 128 countries, representing over 90% of the world’s population. Brazil is 74th position in the ranking: “It is interesting to note that women are the expressive force behind social movements, but rarely ascend to positions of leadership, or go directly into politics. Changing this situation is fundamental to have gender equality”.
